How to do ftp from unix to windows

i have some files in a dir in unix box and i want to put those files in windows through FTP. How to do this ?

Windows does not normally run an FTP server, so you will probably need to 'get' the files using the Windows FTP client.

Otherwise you will need to configure IIS or some other FTP server under Windows.

or you may set samba on unix server ?

use dos prompt
go to start >run>cmd
then cd desktop
then ftp <server ip>>
username=ur login id on that server
>pwd=ur password of that server
then
>cd particular directory
then
>mget filename
>bye

FTPSERVER="YOUR_WINDOWS_IP"
FTPLOGIN="YOUR_WINDOWS_USERNAME"
FTPPASS="YOUR_WIN_PASSWORD"
FTPDIR="YOUR_DEST_DIR"
FILE="FILENAME_TO_FTP"

ftp -n -i $FTPSERVER <<EOF
user $FTPLOGIN $FTPPASS
cd $FTPDIR
put $FILE
quit
EOF

instead of put you can use the mput for multiple files.

i did it like this but it getting stuck

FTPSERVER="100.48.143.13"
FTPLOGIN="nali"
FTPPASS="sun1123"
FTPDIR="class"
FILE="file1.txt"

ftp -n -i $FTPSERVER <<EOF
user $FTPLOGIN $FTPPASS
cd $FTPDIR
put $FILE
quit
EOF
