Yes but that does not mean it's any part of the solution. What implementation of sftp server are you using on the Windows box?

Lightbulb Got most of the problem!

Hi all,

I've understood the above problem. The FTP server's setting was set for a different directory than required as the Top Directory.

Is there a way by which I can change the directory despite it being set up as the top directory? Otherwise I'll have to ask the admin of the remote system to change the top directory. Still, I am expecting a possibility.

And about SFTP, the problem remains the same, only add to that the problem of using SFTP in a script in the '-b' mode and using it non-interactively.

So, now.. I'm waiting for any answers to the possibility of changing the top directory from my end. Else, I'll be waiting for the admin approval.
thanxes...

Is the directory of interest below the top? Can you use "cd" to switch to the directory you want?

Sorry for missing out on this info..

No, it is not below the current top directory.
That is why I asked if there's any way to go beyond the top directory.

Any random ideas?

@porter
Special thanks to you my friend!

No, and that is by design.
