Re: FTP - 400 to PC

["David Shea" <dshea@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

John Shea, eh?  That's my Grandfather's name.... but enough of that.

"H" is a figment of the drive letter mapping process.  Your FTP connection
doesn't know anything about H's.  The FTP server to which you are connecting
probably understands UNC's, not drive letters.  For instance, connecting to
an AS/400 as an FTP server, you can CD to various folders, but not drive
letters.

If LS returns nothing, are you sure you're connected?  Try CD and see if it
tells you what directory you're currently looking at.  From there you might
be able to find your way to where you're going.

Good luck.
