Hi Dan, 
	That was a good catch - I threw a waitForReadyRead(-1) at the top of the while loop in the client and it's still not behaving; it's actually hanging the client which is not a surprise.  For the time being I'm okay hanging the client, eventually I will move the sockets stuff to a thread I just want everything working before I do.

Here is the output I'm capturing from debugview, it still leads me to believe that the client is the issue:
[4940] putFile: filename   file.pdf Buf Size  256 
[4940] putFilev:type  9 8 
[4940] putFile: type  9  size  9 
[4940] putFile: sending  248  bytes 
... 
[4940] putFile: sending  248  bytes 
[4940] putFile: sending  93  bytes 
[4940] putFile: sending end data 
[4940] putFile: client child sent file  " phd.pdf" 
[3804] getFile: type  8  size  9 
[3804] getFile: filename  " file.pdf" 
[3804] getFile: recv  248  Bytes 
[3804] getFile: recv  248  Bytes 
[3804] getFile: recv  248  Bytes 
[3804] getFile: recv  248  Bytes

Do you have any other ideas by chance?

Thanks,
Anthony
