Sytze,

Both the FTP command line FTP and the PSFTP that comes with PuTTy have a
parameter for a file that has a list of commands.

I have used PSFTP (it uses an SSH connection to transfer files) with the
batch to start transferring files home from different directories. I've
always added a file at the end with a name I know the transfer has
completed. Some 1 byte file named "completed.txt", or whatever fancied me at
the time.

When using a the command line, you may need to put in the password, or in a
batch file, it will be plain text. Something to be aware of. Once you start
it you can walk away and let it be. 

Both commands have syntax help via the -h parameter.

HTH,
Tracy
