I believe the problem only occurs with certain FTP server configurations (in
this case, Windows servers with specific user home directories). The previous
mono releases had other problems with this configuration, that have already
been resolved (see bug 466530).

We have set up an ftp account on our server, so that you can see this yourself.
Please try running the following code:


FtpWebRequest ftp = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create
("ftp://ftp.cae.net/test.txt");
ftp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential ("mono", "monot3st");
ftp.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile;
ftp.ContentOffset = 5;
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)ftp.GetResponse ();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader (response.GetResponseStream (),
Encoding.Default);
Console.WriteLine (sr.ReadToEnd());
sr.Close ();
response.Close ();


The file "test.txt" contains a single line of text: "1234567890". The code
reads this file from offset 5, and prints it to the console. 

When running this code on Windows .Net, the return value is "67890", but when
running this on mono (on Mac OS X 10.5), the return value is "1234567890".
