Re: FTP from the 400 side to a PC on the D: drive

[Bob Buchanan <bobbyb@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

try single quotes around the path name on the CD command :
cd 'd:\'

Don't know if it will work or not.  Also, some of the FTP server code on
PCs limits the paths or requires you enter the drives to be able to
access remotely, so you may need to check out your server settings.
