User’s GuideWS_FTP ProSome FTP sites also display messages about the site in the log. These may describe the site’s hours of operation, an e-mail contact, or list other sites that contain the same information (called “mirror” sites).To fully understand the protocol conversation in the log window, you can read RFC 959. However, to look up the most common commands and replies that appear in the log, you can simply use this chapter in conjunction with “Appendix A: Highlights of RFC 959” on page 123 and “Appendix B: Textual Error Messages” on page 135.Viewing the Transfer Log (Ws_ftp.log)WS_FTP can log each transfer you do if you enable the logging capability. When you enable logging, then each time you do a transfer, WS_FTP Pro creates an entry in a file named Ws_ftp.log.The Ws_ftp.log file shows one line for each transfer, along with the date, time, the path and filename on your PC, an arrow indicating whether the transfer was an upload or download, and the path and filename on the FTP site.In the Classic interface, when logging is turned on, WS_FTP Pro creates a log file in each folder to which you download a file; this is the default behavior.If you prefer to have just one Ws_ftp.log file:• Select Options from the View menu.• Click the General tab.• Enter a complete path in the Log filename box.If you prefer to not create any transfer log (Ws_ftp.log) files1 Select Options from the View menu.2 Click the General tab.3 Turn off Enable log.
