Otherwise rsync would be the go. :) Anyway, the easiest one is probably ncftp, which is fairly powerful. It's packaged in at least Fedora/EPEL, and very likely available for other distro's too. :) With ncftp installed (it comes with a bunch of utils), you'll probably want to use ncftpput with the -R option for recursive. Look at the options with it's inbuilt help: $ ncftpput --help If ncftp doesn't quite do what you want, then lftp definitely can. It's super powerful, but a bit weird to use because it has its own scripting language. Recommendation -> Google for other people's lftp scripts, don't try reading the manual first and figuring it out yourself. ;) Hope that helps. :) + Justin -- Open Source and Standards @ Red Hat twitter.com/realjustinclift
