Need help writing a script? Have any question about ScriptFTP?
Does the ftp program allow for multiple connections to a server?
Multiple connections can be done but not concurrently (at the same time). For example, you can create a script that connects to one server, then close the connection, then opens another one and so on. For example:
Code: Select allOPENHOST("ftp.myhost1.com","myuser","mypassword") GETFILE("*.txt") CLOSEHOST() OPENHOST("ftp.myhost2.com","myuser","mypassword") GETFILE("*.txt") CLOSEHOST() OPENHOST("ftp.myhost3.com","myuser","mypassword") GETFILE("*.txt") CLOSEHOST()  
Yeah I was actually looking for multi threads as the current server has over 50k files. It ran for almost 20 hours on a 12 meg connection and still wasn't done.
You can run more than one script at the same time opening multiple ScriptFTP windows.
