Hi, Here is how it works. Create a file and name it whatever. I named mine shellftp.sh for ease of recognition. -- shellftp.sh #dataftp #ftp script # ftp -inv <[shell]/path/to/shellftp.sh[/shell] or [shell]sudo /path/to/shellftp.sh[/shell] depending on how you set permissions. The / willt ake you to the root level of the Unix (OSX which is just a bastardized BSD) server. 1.) / = root 2.) ./ = same directory you are currently in 3.) ../ = up one directory Hope this helps.
