Corrupted checksum when ftping a large file

Hi,

Encountering the following problem when downloading a file using a c application which uses libcurl's ftp:

When downloading a large (> 100M) file, every once in a while, the file somehow gets corrupted. A file with the same size as the original gets downloaded, but it's checksum is different than the original.

So far, attempting to reproduce this problem with the regular ftp cli on linux is not successful, so I'm suspecting the most likely cause is the way the application is using libcurl.

Any ideas on how to resolve / further debug this ?

Thanks,
Guy
