Re: How to Call FTP from batch?

Hi
It is not clear what you have installed as ftp.
FTP is not a command, it is either a client application or a server application, and the Logon depends on each specific application.

How do I supply the User name / passord from a batch file

I did the following:-

cd c:\file_copy
ftp
connect 172.xx.y.zz
<actual username>
<actual pwd>
mGET *.PACKSLIP.DOC;*
copy /y C:\file_copy\*.* R:\PDFS\PACKING_SLIP
bye


Also, mGET from the DOS, prompts for 'Y' to enter for each file to copy. How
to supress confirmation like /y in Copy command?
