Would you consider changing the server side to enable logging? That would give you a trace of files transferred, but not in-flight information. It is very specific on the OS & version number you have.

If you use sftp or scp, you can get a progress report on screen if that helps. Can you tell us more about the client, server and protocol used? Perhaps pv might have something you can use.

For plain ftp you might have to list the file to be transferred first and then you can work out where you are from that.

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.
