Sigh, why does ftp.hp.com have different content (or at least different dir structure) depending on the software I access it with |

Nemo_bis, are you sure you aren't just going mad? I tried it in "ftp" on linux, it was fine, in Firefox it was the same and Filezilla it was fine! |

brayden |
at least for / |

DFJustin |
some of the directories are symlinks, not all ftp software understands that |

|
brayden |
well that's silly :( |

Just use a competent FTP client then? |
21:01
🔗
|
DFJustin |
also some ftp servers start you in a subdirectory by default, so some clients may respect that and others move you to / |

BiggieJon |
dell does that too |
21:02

|
Nemo_bis |
Well, even wget sometimes thinks that ftp1 and ftp2 exist, sometimes not |
21:03
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
filezilla shows me ftp1 and pub symlinking ftp1/pub |
21:04

|
Nemo_bis |
dolphin sees ftp1, ftp2 and pub symlinking who knows where |
21:04
🔗
|
DFJustin |
they may have a round-robin behind the scenes too |
21:04

|
Nemo_bis |
firefox sees only pub but also a bunch of other stuff |
21:04
🔗
|
brayden |
Firefox shows pub and save with no icon and in italics. |
21:06

|
Nemo_bis |
brayden: not to me :/ |
21:08

|
yipdw |
guess it depends on which Firefox version |
21:08
🔗
|
yipdw |
I'm on 23.0; I see italics |
21:08
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
23.0.1 here |
21:09
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
nah, I think the server is just giving different responses |
21:10
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
I see pub and save in italics and the link icon on konqueror :) |
21:10
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
and also ftp, ftp1, ftp2 :) still have to see two identical results :D |

DFJustin, good guess, it does seem to have a round robin, when you quit it has a banner saying the server, I got g5u0083c.atlanta.hp.com first time and g4u1138.houston.hp.com the second time |

Nemo_bis |
luckily connection is kept to the same server by wget for days |
21:14
🔗
|
brayden |
that or you could just stick to one IP, they all seem to have different ones |
