Dan,
It happens on a simple script like the one below, right at the first 
"end." It freezes up and I have to essentially close down the shell, in 
Windows.

FYI--64-bit Windows boxes are becoming more common. Our HP rep. sold 
mine to us, telling us that is was now the standard for "workstation" 
class PCs. I think Intel has been freaked out by the AMD success with 
their new (64-bit) chips.

#Get any Cindex files first.
cindexfiles = Dir.glob("*_*-*.pdf")
cindexfiles.each do |cindexfile|
        ftp = Net::FTP.open('mpc.bna.com') do |ftp|
	ftp.debug_mode = true
	ftp.passive = true
	ftp.login('peterb','pbail')
	ftp.chdir('/data/ps2000test')
	ftp.putbinaryfile(cindexfile)
	end
end

Thanks,
-Peter
