Hi,

I used "mput" to put these files from my windows machine to my linux machine using FTP from my windows desktop. But, now if I am using FTP "mget" from same windows desktop from command prompt, Iam getting "permission denied" message as below.

Please help me, if I am doing anything incorrect....I'll appreciate your help.

ftp> cd sand

ftp> dir
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.

What user is going the FTP?
root, file owner, other? (eg Annoymous?)
If you think file owner are you sure it has the right UID and username?
If its other you have to change the read rights.

Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Robin

Hi,

See this:
Error opening local file 01 crazy kiya.mp3.
> 01 crazy kiya.mp3:Permission denie

It's trying to download the file. All that seems to be working fine, but when it tries to write it locally it's getting a permission denied. Make sure you change into a directory that you can write to before connecting to the ftp server...
