How to use command line based FTP app.

Asked By Edward S Banuelos 20 points N/A Posted on - 04/28/2013

Hallo Experts!

I am using the Windows command line based FTP app for transferring files from my local host to the remote server. What command can I use to turn off interactive prompting during multiple file transfers? This should just be simple, but I am not able to figure it out since I tried using -n but this simply stops auto login during connection. Thanks big time for your assistance.

How to use command line based FTP app.

Before using  Microsoft FTP client, you need to open a command prompt and further swapping into the destination directory , which is the area you want to download file. And in Starting an FTP session , type your ftp name. Where hostname is the name or IP address of the remote system. Further more, You will be asked  to enter your user credentials, that is ID and password. When logged on to the remote system successfully you will be able to use ftp commands to view a list of files on the remote system and transfer files between the two systems.
