SCP -r from Secure FTP site
Hi all,
My problem is simple. I would like to download the contents of a directory on an ftp site. I can access the site through windows, but there are many files and it would be too tedious to click and download each file. Thus, I am trying to use
scp -r username@xx.xx.xxx.xxx:/directory .
but this is not working. I am not being prompt for a password, and the connection is timing out.
I can access the ftp site through windows internet explorer fine. The address is in the form
https://xx.xx.xxx.xxx/directory
I am kind of new at this so I think I might be missing a step or something.
Thanks, in advanced.

NAME
face - executable for the Framed Access Command Environment Interface
SYNOPSIS
face [-i init_file] [-c command_file] [-a alias_file] [filename...]
DESCRIPTION
The Framed Access Command Environment Interface (FACE) presents your files and file folders on the screen through a system of menus and
forms if you are properly set up as a FACE user.
filename must follow the naming convention Menu.xxx for a menu, Form.xxx for a form, and Text.xxx for a text file, where xxx is any string
that conforms to the UNIX system file naming conventions. The Form and Menu Language Interpreter (FMLI) descriptor lifetime will be
ignored for all frames opened by argument to face. These frames have a lifetime of immortal by default. If filename is not specified on the
command line, the FACE Menu will be opened along with those objects specified by the
LOGINWIN environment variables. These variables are found in the user's .environ file.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-a alias_file Alias file
-c command_file Command file
-i init_file Initial file
OPERANDS
The following operand is supported:
filename The full pathname of the file describing the object to be opened initially.
EXIT STATUS
The face command will return a non-zero exit value if the user is not properly set up as a FACE user.
FILES
$HOME/pref/.environ
