Hi Mikes,
I just tried this again with Mike latest EFS testing version.
I still cannot use cygwin ftp.exe from a native Windows XEmacs
21.1.14:
open ftp.somebody.de
Connected to www.somebody.de.
220 ProFTPD 1.2.0 Server (SpaceNet GmbH) [www.somebody.de]
quote user "adm"
331 Password required for adm.
quote pass Turtle Power!
230 User adm logged in.
hash
Hash mark printing on (1024 bytes/hash mark).
quote cwd /www/html-data/fussball/
250 CWD command successful.
ls "-al" C:/DOCUME~1/AICHNE~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/efsaXAjtJ
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list.
226 Transfer complete.
type image
200 Type set to I.
put C:\Users\AichnerAd\WWW\gs\fussball\hirschgarten.html
/www/html-data/fussball/hirschgarten.html
/usr/bin/ftp: local: C:UsersAichnerAdWWWgsfussballhirschgarten.html: No such file or
directory
That's why I have moved my cygwin ftp.exe out of the way and use
C:\WinNT\system32\ftp.exe instead.
Best regards,
Adrian
