How to list a directory with expect via sftp

Hi all

I'm tryto put some file in folder SFTP Server; i would need to test if the
transfer is gone ok.

I was thinking to display directory content but i have problem; i have tried
with

expect "sftp>"

send "ls -l \\r"

but i receive "write() failed to write anything - will sleep(1) and
retry..."



if i try to connect to server via QP2TERM , i receive "Permission denied,
please try again."



How can i get this info ??



Or is there anyway after put, to show a log that say xxxx byte transfered ?
