I'm having difficulty using LFTP on a Debian 5 box backing up to an internet FTP Server. I'm trying to do general backup processes and am using reverse mirror. I'm using the following options for mirror -e -n -R --delete --only-newer --parallel=5 --verbose=2 --log=<filename>.log --use-cache
I'm getting errors like this Transferring file `My Documents/~$aitlyn.doc' Removing old file `My Documents/$aitlyn.doc' rm: Access failed: 550 Could not delete ./$aitlyn.doc: No such file or directory The problem is that there is a file named '~$aitlyn.doc' in the folder...but lftp is apparently dropping the ~ at some point....the file in question is not terribly important because it's a temp file created by MS tools....but the point is that I should be able to back it up, but can't. Please point me to where I need to go or if this is really a bug in the app.
