Command line downloading directories

Post by davephan »

Can an example of how to download a directory containing files and subdirectories with the Core FTP LE client using a command line be posted? I am trying to download directories from the Core FTP server.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\CoreFTP\coreftp.exe" -s -O
-site <Sitename>
-d "/<remote path>/<remote folder>/"
-p "C:\<local path>\<local folder>"

Program path is from a Windows 7 machine
-s runs silent, delete this parameter to see the gui in operation
-O overwrites files without prompting
<Sitename> is as defined in your Site Manager. Avoids putting username and password in to command directly.
All text in <> should be replaced by actual paths/folders/sites.

Use "" to surround paths with spaces in them.

This command will search every sub-folder underneath the remote folder to retrieve all files. Sub-folder structure will be replicated in your local folder.
