Hi folks,
I'm looking for a command-line tool to recursively upload all
changed
files/directories to my homepage server via FTP. Is there anything
better than wput for this task?
'rsync' is perfectly suited for this and much much better than ftp.
''man rsync''
It is, but I believe it only works over SSH. Perhaps it can be
configured to work over FTP, I've never tried (no reason to).
Can you use ssh? I personally never use nor enable FTP anymore these
days given the massive number of script kiddies and serious hackers
out there. Regular FTP is just too insecure ( I don't know about more
recent ''secure'' FTP ). Just use ssh and if it's not available on
the other end beg/tell/require them to enable it
I get easily over 1000 attempts per day from hackers trying to break
into my poor little colo'd server...
