mget question
Basically, I like to know how "mget" command work in terms of data/control channels and in terms of request-respond dialogue.

Also, when I try the command as an example below, is it true than for each file to be transferred, there is a new connection establish? (ie. transferred one file, disconnect, reconnect for another file) or do all files get transferred in one connection?

Thanks
