Send packet logs from both ends to us at kermit-support@columbia.edu. My
guess is that the file was indeed transferred 100%, but the connection is
closed or otherwise clobbered before the last couple "bureaucratic" packets
are successfully exchanged ("I'm done", "OK I know you're done" "OK now I
know that you know I'm done", etc).
