C FTP program
Hi,
Can somebody help me with this problem. I was ask to make a C Program that can FTP file file both downloading and uploading file in remote server. How can I do this, or is there any FTP library I can use for this one. I am using HP Unix 11.0

Consider calling the shell from inside the C program - call the script with popen() so you can get errors and warnings.

There are a lot of examples of 'automating ftp' in shell on this forum. Start searching the FAQ.

This is definitely plan B because it's more difficult:

If you need to call ftp natively, then look into curl, which is available for
HPUX at the Porting Centre:

Why can you not use perl? or a shell script?
