Try...

locsite na 1
lcd /qdls

The key is to try that _first_. Immediately after authenticating to FTP, switch to name format 1. Don't do any other command like BIN or PWD or anything until you've switched. I've had 100% success that way, and unexplainable failures if I don't follow this rule.

Of course, I would be amiss if I didn't mention the open source FTPAPI which makes scripting FTP transfers much easier. See the FAQ.
