Did you try "../../path/path/path/goodfile.txt" ?

Subject: [REBOL] FTP and Absolute Directories


Some time ago I posted a question asking how I could ftp to a server and go
to
a directory that was not below my home directory.

For example, I would like to ftp to another server here at work, and get a
file
located in /var/local/datamover/test1/.

The problem is that Rebol seems to only let you specify relative directory
paths below where you ftp in.

So, if I use the ftp command and specify my user id and password, it will
only
let me reference a directory below my home directory.

Perl, using the Net::FTP object lets me ftp using an absolute path.  I'm
hoping
someone out there has an idea how I can do this in Rebol.  I would really
like
to write this application in Rebol instead of Perl.

Thanks in advance for the help!
