ONFIGURATION NOTES

Auto is the default tran f

s er type, and sends files in the mode specified for each file s 

extension. All extensions are sent in binary mode unless they are listed in Global 

Options > Transfer Settings > ASCII Types. 

SSH2 servers do not support ASCII transfers (see 

http://www.ssh.com/tech/archive/secsh.cfm). CuteFTP Professional adjusts for this 

by automatically stripping line feeds prior to uploads and restores them during 

downloads (prior to the file getting written to disk). 

You can specify the transf r

e  type for a particular site in your Site Manager under its Site 

Properties > Type tab.  

You can change the transfer type for a single CuteFTP session by choosing File > 

Transfer Type from the menu. Once CuteFTP is restarted, it reverts to the transfer 

typ  

e set under Global Options.
