weird ftp issue

On GDWEB I've got these files in /vrtclg:
Object link Type
QIMGCLG STMF
VRT01 STMF
VRT02 STMF

If I do this:
ftp gdweb2
namefmt 1
bin
lcd /vrtclg
Local working directory is /vrtclg
cd /vrtclg
250 "/vrtclg" is current directory.

mput vrt*

250 Now using naming format "1".
257 "/vrtclg" is current directory.

Notice, two files transferred?
Now, watch this:

mput vrt* vrt*

Notice, FOUR files transferred?

Why?

Is it doing this:
Transfer VRT01 to VRT01, VRT02
Transfer VRT02 to VRT01, VRT02
Thus VRT02 is a spitting image of VRT01 when that is not my intent?

This may help explain one really long ftp transmission, if it's sending
two multiGB stream files twice.
