Hi all.

Probably a simple question for *nix people, but not for a newbie :)

I want to ftp the contents of a large directory from one server to
another (probably 300 files @ 20MB each).
I have the login and paths for both the sending server and the
receiving, but I don't have telnet access into them.

I have written php scripts to ftp them, but the scripts timeout after
about 10 files.
I've tried simply using an ftp client with 2 windows open, but that
is way slow.

Is there a way to issue an exec ftp command to do this that won't
timeout the php script?
Maybe run some shell program or something?

Any help appreciated!

steve


Without shell access your options are limited. Can you run cron scripts on machine with the files?
