A command line session. Simple tools might handle ftp URLs
with the command line version of ftp (using a .netrc file
for the login and/or redirections). I said "manual" because
ftppm.exe is a GUI tool, not a command line tool like ftp.exe
Actually I only wanted to see what these tools do if I
never use a CD / CHDIR. Of course this test series makes
no sense, we'd need different _servers_ to see why some
old clients do a dummy CD / breaking the spec. If there
is a reason for this misbehaviour. Maybe it's just a bug.
Bye, Frank
