iis ftp:
I uploaded about 20,000 files and folders to a web site and there were
intermittent transfer failures causing the resulting files to have a
file size of 0. The upload was 5 gigs and took almost an entire day.
Does anyone know of a program that will export a complete list of all
the files and folders so I can do a sort and find out specificaly which
files didn't make it?

Errr. you can either
a) do a dir listing, save the output to a text file at both end, then use
file compare utility to check the differences?
b) do a sample folder size and file count via windows explorer, right mouse
property... check the number
c) ...

Thanks, but I'm not sure you understand the question. There are 20,000
files and probably 1000 folders. What you alluded to in b) doesn't
seem reasonable since I would have to do this manually 1000 times.
What you mentioned in a) sounds promising if a dir listing would
display ALL directories. With this many subdirectories just listing
the highest level won't help me. Is there a way via FTP to do an
export of all folders and sub-folders with their respective folder
sizes?

what you asking is behind ftp protocol for file transfer.

do you want to make sure both site in sync? if yes.. don't think ftp will
ensure that for you.

or else, google some OS utility for directory sync check, etc.
