Mounting ntfs drive in freebsd

[ftp4you]

Was wondering why when I use pureftpd in freebsd (Installed by ports) does it somehow curopt the files when transfering from my ntfs partion to my winxp box. I mounted the ntfs drive by this command.


mount -t ntfs /dev/ar0s1 /win

I'm useing flashfxp to do the transfer and I noticed that its doing the transfer in 8 bit binary. I know the files arn't bad because for example i can play mpg files on the ntfs drive with mplayer on freebsd. I also noticed that if I first copy the file from my ntfs drive to a freebsd partion then transfer to winxp the file seems to be fine. So i know it either has to be the way i am mouting the drive or it the way pureftpd looks at ntfs drives.

Any help would be great.....

Thanks

Sorry, I am not exactly sure if the ntfs partition is under winxp or a 3rd machine,
it would help understand if you have 2 or 3 machines.

1. Did you try using mount_ntfs instead ? (although this may not be your problem)

2. When transferring files is there an option to say binary instead of auto ?

Best Wishes!
