Not exactly. CWD change directorie according to what you pass as argument. If you pass an absolute directory, so does it change. If you pass a relative directory, it change accordingly ! As I said in one of my previous messages, when you lon onto a FTP server, you are not in the "root directory", you are in the "home directory" which may or may not be the same as the root directory. Use PWD to know where you are logged in. Contribute to the SSL Effort.
