mkdir directory-name

directory-name

specifies the name of the new directory. Specify directory-name as required by the remote
system.

The directory is created in the current working directory.

Example

To create a directory named memos, use the following command:

ftp> mkdir memos

mls

Use the mls command to display abbreviated directory information about one or more remote files.

mls remote-files [ remote-files ] ... local-file

remote-files

is a file name or a wild-card name that specifies the remote files you want described.

local-file

sends the output to a local file. FTP prompts you to confirm that you want to send output to the
specified file. If the file does not exist, FTP creates a text file.

If you specify local-file by typing a hyphen (-), the output appears on your terminal.

This is a required parameter. You must specify either a file name or a hyphen.

Example

Assume glob is on. The following command displays the file names cust11, cust45, and cust99:

ftp> mls cust{11,45,99}

cust11
cust45
cust99

mode

Use the mode command to set the transmission mode. The default mode is stream. (This is the only
mode currently available with NonStop FTP.)

mode [ mode-name ]

mode-name

specifies the transmission mode. Only stream is valid.

In stream mode, data is transmitted as a stream of bytes.

Example

To set the mode, enter the following command:

ftp> mode stream

mput

Use the mput command to copy one or more local files to the current working directory on the
remote system.

mput local-files [ local-files ] ...

local-files

is a file name or a wild-card name that specifies the local files you want to copy. If you specify
a wild-card name, the glob toggle must be on. If you do not qualify a file name, the file is taken
from the current default subvolume. The file name is case-sensitive.
