Directory Recursing

I ran across this script and am hoping what I'm encountering can be easily overcome because this will be invaluable in a server migration I'm working on. I'm able to connect to my ftp server and it logs in. I'm using

Code:
ksh HardFeed -drfv <server> <user> httpdocs

to initiate the script. I get reasonable output for everything in my main directory, then it begins on the sub directories. My first subdirectory is BeTheBoss and it has a subdirectory of images, and HardFeed seems to get through those fine. The 2nd subdirectory is where I run into trouble. I get the following output:

Code:
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/HardFeed.tp.5660.3': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/HardFeed.ok.5660.3': No such file or directory
httpdocs/BeTheBoss/Binder is a remote directory that already exists
FATAL ERROR: timed out waiting for:
             BeTheBoss-AK66.html

and the script aborts. My directory tree looks something like this:

Code:
/httpdocs/BeTheBoss/images
/httpdocs/Binder

From the looks of it it's using Binder as a subdirectory of BeTheBoss, but I'm not quite sure why. I'm going to try to dig through the script and solve it myself, but I don't know if I have quite enough shell scripting background to manage it.f

Thanks in advance if you beat me to the answer; if I find the fix I'll post back to this forum. Smilie

NAME
irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands SYNOPSIS
irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...] DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc. DIRECTIVE can be: SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once SEND_START - start repeating CODE SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE LIST - list configured remote items SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...] SIMULATE - simulate IR event REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file. CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
