A problem I am attempting to troubleshoot is that lftp returns an return
code of 0, despite the fact that it can't login to the remote server and
the rest of the commands run also fail.
If I do the exact same commands manually, then lftp returns a code of 1
(expected).
So for example, let's assume we are going to run lftp using a command
script
lftp -f t.cmd
and t.cmd contains the following..
open -p 990 serverA
user bill fred
cd /
close
quit
now, the username and password I'm using are incorrect, so the ftp process
can't authenticate so this "job" will fail, I was expecting lftp to behave
similiar to manual mode in which this behavior causes lftp to return a
non-zero code of 1.
[root@serverB]:[/tmp] > lftp -f t2.prm

I find it difficult to believe this is a bug, so I'm thinking I must be
doing something wrong...but what?
BTW, I've also tried this using lftp -e "source filename" -u bill,fred -p
990 serverA with the same results.
Thanks.
