Re: ncftpget recursive -R not working


it is a shared-webhosting environment so /www is inside my ftp-entryfolder.

yes i got permission on my local box.

funny enough is when using /www/* files get downloaded successfully. So
somehow my access rights should be alright. Could it be possible that the
ftp-server is configured to ignore -R flag?

Doing following does not download anything:

Firstly, are you trying to download /www as in /home/username/www or
%root%/www ?


Most ftp servers will not allow 'root' to login, so i hope you are not
trying %root%/www, unless 'user' has /www as their login dir, if www is
a directoy within your remote login, do *not* include the preceding / , so
/www is really just www

ncftpget -T -R -v -u user -p pwd server.com /home/tmp www

Do you have write permissions for /home/tmp on your local machine


Appending an asterix does download something but not recursively

Doesn't need it.
