RE: FN-FORUM: FTP Help 2 remote locations from one local Dir

date posted 5th August 2005 16:48

FTP doesn't automatically send the contents of sub-folders (unless anyone
knows otherwise) you would have to know the names of each subdirectory and
specifically send the contents of that dir too... E.g.

With nested folders:

dir1
+--- dir-1-b
+--- dir-1-b-1

Your ftp command script would be:

lcd dir-1
cd dir-1
mput *.*
lcd dir-1-b
cd dir-1-b
mput *.*
lcd dir-1-b-1
cd dir-1-b-1
mput *.*


If the nested folders aren't fixed, or there's loads of them, I'd go
Andrew's suggestion of PuTTY for windows.

Dave.
