Hi Mark,

If you set up the Unix box as the FTP server with standard FTP-compliant security (or anonymous), then it's fairly easy to setup with Win98 box to access the files on it using the MS Internet Transfer Control -or- even the old command line FTP command using a script.


>I need to be able to check if files exist on a Unix(SCO OpenServer 5.0.4) server, and FTP them to a Win98 PC. I know I can control the FTP process on the server and connect to a WINNT PC, but can't find a way of connecting to a Win98 PC. I don't mind which machine (server or PC) controls the FTP session, and would be grateful for any suggestions.
