Kevin. My apologies. I've mistaken the ftp task with the telnet task I've been working on. Check out the API-Doc for FTPClient, they do have a method for directory removal.
http://www.savarese.org/oro/developers/docs/NetComponents/api/com/oroinc/net /ftp/FTPClient.html hope this helps.

I have checked through the source code in the ftp class and there is no reference anywhere to perform a remove directory method with the FTPClient object. Regards, Kevin.

Do you ftp to the server, and use the ftp task to delete the directory, (e.g. <write>rm -r target ), or do you ftp to the server, and call another ant script to delete it?
