I've tried under linux: ncftp, gftp, IglooFTP under windoze: leechftp, ws_ftp lite & pro, and cuteftp. I'm using the #1 web hosting isp (this week) according to http://webservices.cnet.com/html/aisles/Most_Popular.asp All ftp clients can batch uploading and batch delete. But only cuteftp can RECURSIVELY upload / delete (subdirectories, etc.) WS_FTP lite & pro can recursively upload but NOT recursively delete. I have over 200 directories and don't have money to pay a monkey to sit there all day uploading them one directory at a time. This is using CuteFTP COMMAND:> MKD jp 257 (unknown absolute name) new directory created. COMMAND:> CWD jp 250 CWD command successful. COMMAND:> pwd 257 "/jp" is current directory. What is an "unknown absolute name"? is it NFS symlinked or something? Leechftp can recursively delete the files but oddly not the folders but it says it's a forbidden operation. But can't upload. I wish I could telnet in but shell accounts aren't an option. Yes I've set Passive mode to be default and it uses it passive mode. I've tried at work (behind firewall..not socks just NAT) and at home (using NAT). http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc959/7_Scenario.html REMOVE DIRECTORY (RMD) This command causes the directory specified in the pathname to be removed as a directory (if the pathname is absolute) or as a subdirectory of the current working directory (if the pathname is relative). MAKE DIRECTORY (MKD) This command causes the directory specified in the pathname to be created as a directory (if the pathname is absolute) or as a subdirectory of the current working directory (if the pathname is relative). So if it creates a folder of an unknown absolute name...the directory's path is not absolute? All other ftp servers I've ever used I've never had a problem using the above mentioned clients. The only other thing I can think of is CuteFTP does a /bin/ls each time and creates a temporary file of the directory listing..is that it? Why is CuteFTP the only client able to handle this weirdness? _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
