FTP, in theory, supports 3 modes of transfer: stream, block, and compressed. When you want to restart a file and you give it a position it only makes sense if you know which of the 3 transfer modes is being used. Thus REST STREAM indicates stream mode. Since ioFTPD doesn't use compression or support block mode all transfers are in stream mode and thus no need for the command
