Permissions to receive ftp push from Unix box
Hi all,
I am new to this forum, hoping to find the solution to a problem I've been having for days.
I have a VPS on Linux box. I have setup an ftp account with the Plesk control panel. I am trying to receive an ftp data push from a Unix box but they tell me they keep getting permission denied errors, specifically that they don't have write permissions.
I personally don't know how to do a data push from a Unix box. I do know that when I use a windows based ftp program, I can connect to my VPS via ftp and transfer files all day long with no problem.
How do I ensure that the Unix box can push this data to my Linux VPS ftp site? What do I need to do to the permissions, and how can I get the push sent to a certain directory?
Thanks,
Carrie

bup-ftp(1) General Commands Manual bup-ftp(1)
NAME
bup-ftp - ftp-like client for navigating bup repositories
SYNOPSIS
bup ftp
DESCRIPTION
bup ftp is a command-line tool for navigating bup repositories. It has commands similar to the Unix ftp(1) command. The file hierarchy is
the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1) and bup-ls(1).
Note: if your system has the python-readline library installed, you can use the <tab> key to complete filenames while navigating your
backup data. This will save you a lot of typing.
COMMANDS
The following commands are available inside bup ftp:
ls [-s] [-a] [path]
print the contents of a directory. If no path argument is given, the current directory's contents are listed. If -a is given, also
include hidden files (files which start with a . character). If -s is given, each file is displayed with its hash from the bup ar-
chive to its left.
cd dirname
change to a different working directory
pwd print the path of the current working directory
cat filenames...
print the contents of one or more files to stdout
get filename localname
download the contents of filename and save it to disk as localname. If localname is omitted, uses filename as the local name.
mget filenames...
download the contents of the given filenames and stores them to disk under the same names. The filenames may contain Unix filename
globs (*, ?, etc.)
help print a list of available commands
quit exit the bup ftp client
EXAMPLE
$ bup ftp
bup> ls
mybackup/ yourbackup/
bup> cd mybackup/
bup> ls
2010-02-05-185507@ 2010-02-05-185508@ latest@
bup> cd latest/
bup> ls
(...etc...)
bup> get myfile
Saving 'myfile'
bup> quit
