uploading QuickTime movie to ftp server

[Claire Bradin Siskin]

I am trying to upload a binary file (QuickTime movie) to an ftp 
server, using the following script:

   put URL "binfile:moviefile.mov" into URL 
"ftp://username:password@myftpserver.edu/moviefile.mov"


With this script, I get a file on the server with the correct number 
of bytes, but the file appears not to be binary and cannot be opened 
by QuickTime.

If I use a slash after "binfile:"  the file is uploaded, but it is 
zero bytes in size. The server indicates that it is receiving the 
file in binary.

Can anyone suggest a way to upload a file that works as QuickTime?

Thanks in advance,
Claire
