Hi, I am looking for a way to transfer files using ftp from a remote site to my current account. In particular I need a command for ftp to recursively retrieve all files in a directory as well as all files in all subdirectories, not only the first level, but all levels below the current directory level, i.e. the entire directory structure with all the files. I tried mget but it only retrieves files in the current directory and files in first level of subdirectories, but nothing else. Also, it doesn't reconstruct all the subdirectories at my location. So, how can I get an entire directory structure with its files and reconstruct it exactly as it is at the remote site? E-mail would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
