[SunHELP] ftp recursively.

[Meng, Andrew]

David,

Can I use ftp to get the directory as well? I mean that it creates the
remote directory on local host and mget the files into it?

Thanks!
Andrew

 Man ftp. Give ftp either the -i switch or interactively give it the "prompt
off" command.
Then use
"mget <string>" to get multiple files.
i.e.-
ftp -i blah.ftp.net
mget *
or 
ftp blah.ftp.net
prompt off
mget *
