Now here IS a dumb question..
If the server says "no hammering, set retry to > 60 secs" should I set 61 secs and number of retries to say 500! will this piss off the guy at the other end? Is this acceptable behavior? Or should I only retry say 20 times.

we ARE at the lowest level here....
Thanks

Normally the operators of the FTP site will banned the I.P address that is hammering
their server every 5 secs, so I say following the wishes of FTP site is a wise move.
