Thanks Methyl.,

My requirement is to write a script to create a directory with the following criteria..

in the ftp server , say i have three directory as follows. I need to create a script in such a way that if i enter a number say 41452, the script should identify the directory correctly under which this number will fall below and it should create a directory named 41452 under that directory.

ftp> ls
41000-42000
42000-43000
43000-44000
ftp>

once i run the script , i should be able to see the directory named 41452 under 41000-42000.

Any help ?

Thanks..

ftp

ftp(4)								   File Formats 							    ftp(4)

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.
