of course i can ftp in and do ls, mput, mget with no errors, but this
ncftpget giving me errors without any positive result.
is there any conf file for ncftp i have to make changes ?
i am totally confused in this as ncftpget login properly but not fetching
any errors.
kindly tell me some solution as once i get this done i will put this in cron
and leave this task for cron to do as we have to make frequent
uploads/downloads here of huge size (in GBs).
we get our work from internet do it here and send it back i.e.past in ftp!
once it's automated i will be very relaxed.
and also tell me does ncftp has capability to process huge files (GB's) ?or
some limitation?

thanks and rgds
