Konqueror ftp destination

Where does konqueror put files that have been downloaded from an ftp site? I just downloaded some files and can't find them, even using the konqueror find tool. :(

do you mean kget or something? by default the dialog box goes to /home/*yourusername* so i'd suggest going there.

I downloaded two iso files (8 hours time) and now I cannot find the downloaded files. I looked in /home/*myusername* first, then in all the subdirectories there.

I then fired up Konqueror and tried the find tool, looking for *.iso from the / directory root. After several minutes, it returned no files found.

I will look some more tonight when I get home using the find -size utility and see if that works. I just really wanted to know where I SHOULD find the files if everything worked normally.

Usually you have to specify a path if you start downloading, don't you?

It didn't give me an opportunity to specify a path, so I assumed there was some default path that I could access later. So much for "assume".

I am downloading the files AGAIN using gftp and it is doing what I expect it to do - allowing me to specify a destination and then download.

Thanks for the reply...

I think KGet lets you specify default paths, but my version doesn't remember them :(

You could starte KGet and look through its options.
