FTP command ?
yesterday i was given an FTP command to use on UNIX Solaris and it was very straight forward and that's probably why i don't remember it, i only remember convoluded things apparently!
but it was something as simple as this:
ftp xyz_abc.com
but that's apparently not it, does anyone know what the command should be?
oh an i also tried ftp ftp.xyz_abc.com and
ftp://xyz_abc.com and about 10 other permutations
thanks for any insights and next time i'm writing everything down immediatlely!

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp
DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and
are ignored.
Behavior Directives
The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send
LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default.
If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is
specified in /etc/default/ftp.
