Have you tried put *.*. It should upload all files in directory. I can't check this now but something like this above should work.

try mput -R
haven't tried it myself though, but -R is the typical recursive option for most linux commands

do something like this mput *
or open your browser and type ftp://yoursite.com and copy from there

mput* will only copy the files in the current folder, not recursive.
most browsers do not support uploading to ftp.
so your options are both wrong.


if i may give you a hint: posting 12 one-sentece-posts will not get you hosting. if you want free hosting fast, try www.freeprohost.com

using put and mput works even with windows dos.

on command promptjust type "ftp" and you can get other info when u type "help"

Thanks for your guys reply, I tried mput *, it seems like find all the file in my user home directory, which is not the file I specified the path for that command. FAIL!
Then I try go to the directory which I wanna transfer, mput * send all the file to the root directory of remote server. SUCCESS(partly)! I am trying to find some command such as -R, unforturnately, I can not figure out why -R is always behave asa a argument which is the source file name.
I got some software for FTP the whole folder, just thought FTP command would be more reliable when some wired problem happen in the client side.

There is no way to do this with the standard windows or unix ftp client. Either get a diffrent client, or tar/zip/rar/whatever your folder, transfer it and untar/unzip/unrar/unwhatever it.
Easiest would be using an ftp client like FlashFXP for windows.
