Unix Batch FTP - SAS
Hi All,

Im trying to write a Unix FTP batch file within a program called SAS. Now i already have one for windows which works fine, but it doesnt work within unix.

I've been told that some of the commands are different from Windows to Unix, and ive looked round and am completely stumped...

Can anyone have a look at the below and tell me which parts need changing:-

Code:
%macro ftp_create_folder(
			host = ,
			user = ,
			pass = ,
			cur_dir = ,
			new_dir = ,
			script_file = temp.txt);

	filename scr "&script_file";

	data _NULL_;

		file scr;

		put "open &host";
		put "&user";
		put "&pass";
		%if "&cur_dir" ne "" %then
			%do;
				put "cd &cur_dir";
			%end;
		put "mkdir &new_dir";
		put "close";
		put "quit";
	run;

	filename scr clear;

	%sysexec ftp -s:"&script_file";
	%sysexec del "&script_file";


%mend ftp_create_folder;

Thanks

Shenn
