Ed,
I'm not sure what's going on, there is no difference in the software
for DL 11 vs any other DL….in fact, the DL # is the equivalent to a
subdirectory on your drive….there's nothing special about any specific DL so
if you can upload to one DL, you can upload to any of them with the exception
of if we run out of room in a DL…but in that case, you get the "full message"
before you even start the upload.
Since you say you've uploaded ok in the past, I'll presume you haven't
changed any of that…and the settings were correct to start off with.
Are you by any chance using AHOST? If so, when it locks, try hitting
the Left-Amiga-N key, see if there is a system requester behind the screen
(which is where they pop up with AHOST).
Also, you shouldn't see the capital C (it's the CRC handshake
character)so it may be you are telling your terminal program to start the
upload too late…althou I doubt it since it does send the first block anyway.
Lastly, try uploading a short file (any file) to any of the DL's, see
if that goes ok. In the description, and keywords, just use TEST UPLOAD, that
way, we won't make the file public…at least that may narrow the trouble down
to a specific file that won't upload or a general problem.
