Bug korn shell + sftp + list files
Hello!!!

I need a korn shell script in AIX that inside sftp environment, changes a remote directory, lists the files inside it, and stores in an array.

I got it working before make a sftp, but after.. I can't..

The way it is, it lists the files in local path... so.. not what I want, but just to have an idea of what I'm doing:

#!/bin/ksh

echo "OK, starting now..."
cd /folderA/folderB
list=`ls`
echo "$list"
sftp remoteMachine << EOF


Thanks in advance...
:O)

Hi all


I got it working using mget *, instead of store the filenames in a array.
The list=`ls` command wasn't working, 'cause I was inside the sftp environment, and it wasn't recognizing.
