Alternatively, if you have shell access on the server that you want to transfer the files to, you might be able to (in ftp) do get directory_name<strong>.tar</strong>. notice the addition of .tar to the directory name. If the ftp server supports this, it forms a tarball with the directory's contents in it for you to transfer.</p> Sat, 12 Feb 2000 18:02:00 +0000 roBofh comment 1004071 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/serverside-scripting/site-copying#comment-1004072 <p>You may want to check out the<br /> NET::FTP module<br /> (<a href="http://search.cpan.org/doc/GBARR/libnet-1.0607/Net/FTP.pm" title="http://search.cpan.org/doc/GBARR/libnet-1.0607/Net/FTP.pm">http://search.cpan.org/doc/GBARR/libnet-1.0607/Net/FTP.pm</a>)</p> <p>I have not actually used it, so I cannot help you too much, sorry.</p> <p>------------------<br /> <strong>Windmills always turn counter-clockwise.
