Appreciate your reply.
Radhika.
In general you could redirect the output STDOUT and STDERR of the ftp call to a log file and then query the log file for specific success or failure return codes to determine the status of the current ftp session. From this perspective you might have to create different log files for each ftp session and actively manage your logfiles too.
If there is any other way please advise. Thanks. Jerardfjay
