Message-ID: <3916C503@operamail.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: InterChange (Hydra) SMTP v3.61.01 Hi all, I have this seemingly trivial problem: I wish to do some FTP file transfers from within a Bourne shell script that runs on top of CygWin and Windows 9x. On Solaris, Linux etc I would use the plain old "ftp" command, possibly creating a .netrc file on-the-fly if needed. This does not seem to work at all with the Win32 FTP command. Furthermore, CygWin Tools does not contain an ftp command either. I did look around for some shareware client, but without success so far. If I were doing only downloads (no uploads) I could get along with Lynx. However, I need a solution for the upload case as well. Any hints welcome! There ought to be a solution for a trivial problem like this, only I don't know in which direction to look. --Rabbe Fogelholm, Sollentuna, Sweden -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
