jerry1999 on "ftp problems from linux server"

$

I've used ws_ftp from a unix server previously, I am migrating to a linux server and the files are getting skewed in the ftp, at least when I open them in Notepad. I think the LF/CR characters are not getting interpreted correctly. I've tried binary, ascii and auto but get the same results. A file that looks like this before the ftp:

USERNUM
LASTNAME
FIRSTNAME

Will look like this in Notepad after an ftp:

USERNUM
...........LASTNAME
........................FIRSTNAME

(Ignore the periods, in my first post the leading blanks were removed)

But if I copy and paste from Notepad to another text editor the data lines up correctly:

USERNUM
LASTNAME
FIRSTNAME

Any assistance would be appreciated.
