That would be great. TC has to do so even if I manually confirm to reconnect. So it is desirable that TC does it without my interaction.

And since I can watch the log in the actual TC window I would not be surprised if a command takes a bit longer.

actually, Sheepdog, this is very good point...
Christian, please, think about it. You do not have to do it just now. Till TC 7.0 will be released there is a plenty of time :-)

Agreed! I guess I didn't see this thread the first time around. I've just taken a new job where I will be doing significantly more FTPing than in the past, so this would really be appreciated.

Btw. While we're bumping threads, what about this one? ;-)
