Hi

I've just found that there is possible to automatically login to ftp server
(via normal cmd ftp klient) via command like that:
ftp -A -s:tasks.txt host_name

where -A - is for anonymous login and
-s:tasks.txt - run ftp commands stored in tasks.txt file (after successful
login)

but it can be used whenever there is possible to log as an anonymous onto
FTP server.
How could I change the syntax so that I could log in with user and password?
Is it possible?

best regards

D.T.

I think we went through this last year and (again I believe)
that surprising as it was to me you are correct and you
cannot do this with the MS FTP client.

(I could be wrong, and misremembering something else,
but I am pretty sure since it was so surprising to me.)

You will have to find (or build) an FTP client that has
(likely) been ported more directly from UNIX.

Put your login information into the FTP script you run with the -s:
switch. Works fine for me. :)
