Thank you all very much for your responses. I find your use of the Connection utility interesting. I guess I haven't looked to use it because I'm just a scripting kind of guy. But I see that this would be valuable when dealing with multiple users and/or multiple scripts. Jim DuWaldt MIS Coordinator phone: (714) 224-7916

We use Shared Sites because of the many users in our department. below is a scrubbed example of a script (.scp) file we pull from an sftp site with, you can use the PUT and MPUT commands as well: LABEL START TRACE SCREEN LOG C:\Logs\WSFTP_Logs\our-Log.txt ONERROR GOTO ERROR CONNECT Shared_Sites!Defined_Site_Name - note: you can drop the "SHARED_SITES!" part if you do not use them in your implemation CD the_hosts_directory LCD C:\the_local_directory MGET *.* MDELETE *.* LCD C:\some_other_local_directory CD ../another_remote_dir MGET *.* MDELETE *.* GOTO EXIT LABEL ERROR LABEL EXIT CLOSE We have no issues once the site has been defined as an sftp site within the wsftp pro product, the way we call it is: C:\Program Files\Ipswitch\WS_FTP Professional\ftpscrpt.com -f C:\WSFTP\WSFTP_Scripts\the_above_script_name.scp Also note in your message you are calling ftpscrpt.exe, we use ftpscrpt.com as the program to execute our script (.scp) file. Do not worry about the delete, if the get fails the error trap will send it around the delete and you can re-connect and fetch your stuff later, you can invert this and do a local delete if you so desire on a push if you need to clean up after yourself from the script.

Unfortunately this cannot be used for connecting to sftp. I have not been able to discover a script command for using SSH; does anyone know how to do this?
