About FTP

I wish to improve our knowledge on FTP (File Transfer Protocol), which is commonly used for copying files to and from other computers.

Here are some useful and common commands that you have to be familier with,

#To connect your local machine to the remote machine:
ftp

#To copy multiple files/ all the files from remote to local machine:
mget/mget *

#To copy multiple files from local machine to remote machine:
mput
#To copy file:
get

#lcd - same as cd

#rmdir- to remove directory

#bye-same as quit(exit from FTP environment)

#close-to terminate a connection with another computer
