I'm trying to copy my websites over to a new server. One problem i have is i can't seem to find out how to copy a whole directory to the local directory.

Can someone show me what command i would use to copy a folder called downloads.

Thanks.

ftp doesn't allow you to do recursive copy's in its vanilla form.

If you have a client that can handle them then you'll have more luck with copying directorys.

If you're on a 'nix system download a copy of yafc, and use that. Thumbs Up
