Hi Collins, I was actually referring to the first post sent by Edmonds
<snip> # Files to transfer on local server (*.* as everything in the directory) *FILE="/path_to/localServer_userdir/*.*"* # Remote Server Directory REMDIR="/path_to/remoteServer/valid_userdir/" # login to remote server cd $REMDIR ftp -ni $SERVER <<END user $USERNAME $PASSWORD binary *mput $FILE/*.** </snip> The variable FILE already is a wildcard, mput should just have $FILE and *not* $FILE/*.* That adds a wildcard to a wildcard. Seen it?
