Let me explain the scenario clearly. lftp.txt contents:
set hftp:proxy http://<proxyuser>:<proxypassword>@<proxy server>:3128 open <server name> set ftp:anon-pass "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ls -lR > lftp.out quit I executed lftp -f lftp.txt from two machines. 1.Client machine A(RedHat Linux 8.0) connected to the server machine via internet (direct connection) 2. Client machine B (RedHat Linux 7.2) connected to the server machine via internet but THROUGH a proxy server. In this case, in client A, the execution is successful and the result is getting saved in the file I specified. In client B, the error- invalid option- comes. My doubt is: if the problem is due to 'ls' alias, it should not have worked well in both the cases. Is this a problem bcoz' I'm going via a proxy? Is the way in which I specified proxy settings is correct? --- Nicolas Noble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Alexander V.
