Hi All,

I am trying to automate my QWK packet download. I installed
ncftp and while it appears to connect fine, it always times out
when Synchronet is building the qwk packet.

ie:
ncftpget.exe -d -umyusername -pmypassword bbs.pharcyde.org c:\dos\dloads\ pharcyde.qwk
It correctly logs in etc.

Is there a better way to do it? Or another program?

Thanks,

Shawn

When I was doing that, I used curl.

SIgh, of course. Thanks man, I forgot all about curl being
able to do FTP.
