I have relied heavily on the FTPScheduler portion of FTPVoyager for successfully transmitting batches of small text files every ten minutes - for fourteen years! There are a couple of batch files in the process that first copy the files to a different directory, rename them and change directories. The following log shows a typical connection where no files were available:

Only recently our partner has switched their FTP server to secure mode on a new server - presumably with a newer and/or different software. A similar log a few minutes later shows the results, but FTPScheduler never completes i.e. it seems to hang with the first copy batch file. It was necessary to kill and restart FTPScheduler.

Note that I have repeatedly transmitted large files manually to the secure server successfully using just FTPVoyager. Also note that both use the exact same "script" used for both with the only difference being switching destination servers.
Presumably, the FTPVoyager needs to be upgraded, so I need to know the procedure since is no longer RhinoSoft. Also, are there any other issues/problems you can foresee?
