Send and Receive

How do I send and receive files once connected in MS-DOS FTP?

To get files from the server and put those files in your directory on the system you were currently working, type:

get fileyouwanttoget.htm

Where fileyouwanttoget.htm is the name of the file you desire to get from the computer connected to.

To send a file from your computer to the computer you are connected to (providing you have appropriate privileges and the file be present in the current working directory), type:

send fileyouwanttoput.htm

Where fileyouwanttoput.htm is the name of the file that exists in the current directory; if you cannot recall the name of the file, use the ! command to temporally get back to a MS-DOS prompt; once you have located the file name, type exit to get back to the location you left in FTP.
