I'm trying to download a known file from a vendor's private ftp server. I'm logged in to the ftp server using the anonymous user account, which doesn't have permission to list files in folders, but does have (read?) permission to download the known file.
E.g. I want to download the known file ftp://ftp.vendor.com/folderA/folderB/theFile.exe
Since the anonymous user doesn't have permission on the above folders the error '550 -aL: Access is denied' is returned for both folderA and folderB when I click those folders in the SmartFTP GUI.
If I try to go directly to the known file by typing in /folderA/folderB/theFile.exe in SmartFTP's folder box, it says:
CWD /folderA/folderB/theFile.exe
550 /folderA/folderB/theFile.exe: The directory name is invalid.
That is, SmartFTP thinks theFile.exe is a folder/directory name.
I know I can download the file without using SmartFTP by simply pasting the ftp URL into Internet Explorer or Firefox and clicking Save, however there are several very large files to download and I'd like to schedule the downloads in SmartFTP's transfer queue.
Any ideas how I can do this, or will it require a functionality enhancement?
Thanks,
