Dave, et. al. -
There is a software anomaly in the aftp daemon which causes ftp 
transfers to behave erratically - terminate abruptly, terminate
as if successful after transferring one packet, and so on.
This is scheduled to be resolved in Checkpoint's release 2.0E,
due at some date in the near future.  I do not know why you have
had no satisfactory response from Checkpoint - this has been an
issue for 6 weeks or so, but I apologize.

One note:  if you send email to "support @
 checkpoint .
 com" it goes
directly to the support team in Israel and bypasses our domestic 
facility.  You can always send email to me for forwarding on to the 
appropriate engineer.
