Howdy,
I'm still getting strange issues with symlinks in edtFTPNet Pro - atleast in the example viewer, doesnt really affect our stuff but figured I'd let you know.
Example server:
  <ServerAddress>mirror.3fl.net.au</ServerAddress>
  <ServerDirectory>/pub/ubuntu/releases/gutsy</ServerDirectory>
  <ServerPort>21</ServerPort>
  <UserName>anonymous</UserName>
Using the ExampleViewer's InstantFTP client as a demo application try connecting and downloading any of the linked items (the ISOs for instance).
We concatenate the localdirectory with the filename selected to download it.
