Linux FTP command line

[wazza4610]

Hi ALL

I'm new.

Can someone help me with Linux FTP through a command line interface.

I need to know how to send an entire folder to an ftp site via a linux command interface. I know how to connect to the ftp site, i just need to know the command to upload an entire folder to the FTP site.

Thanks in advance

It depends on the ftp program you're using, but usually (with something like ncftp, for instance) you can use the "put" command recursively, so something like:

put -R folder

will work

There are other command-line ftp programs that DO NOT support recursive get and put.

I found this handy page on ncftp for you if you have other questions:
