SYMPTOMSAfter you use Microsoft Personal Web Server version 1.0 for Windows 95 to share a folder on your computer so that it can be accessed using File Transfer Protocol (FTP), you can use the FTP tool (Ftp.exe) included with Windows 95 to establish an FTP connection to the shared folder. If you establish a connection to the folder from the same computer on which the folder is shared, you can then use the PUT command to copy a file in the folder onto itself. If you do so, the file may be reduced in size to zero bytes. RESOLUTIONTo prevent this problem from occurring, do not establish FTP connections to shared folders from the same computer on which the folders are shared. If you need to establish FTP connections to shared folders from the same computer on which they are shared, do not copy files in the shared folders onto themselves. STATUSMicrosoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. MORE INFORMATION
When you establish an FTP connection to a shared folder from the same
computer on which the folder is shared, the shared folder and the FTP
connection to the shared folder are treated as two different folders.
Because they are treated as different folders, the FTP tool allows you
to copy files from one folder to the other. For example, you can copy a
file from the shared folder to the FTP connection to the shared folder.
