Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Problem with embedded FTP command in Ksh - System Cannot find the specified path. Post 302374074 by methyl on Monday 23rd of November 2009 10:33:01 AM

The failure is probably because the full path does not exist on the remote ftp server.
If you just want to place the file in the home directory of the remote ftp server consider doing a shell "cd" before the ftp and use the filename without the directory name in the "put" statement.

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. ATTRIBUTES
