I need a FTP client which connects to a FTP server and act as a file transfer spooler. I.e it shall scan a folder for files and transfer them to a FTP server. Is there any available software or is there some source code wich could be modify to be used to do this. Thanks Eivind Rinde ----- Eivind Rinde Norwegian Telecom Telephone +47 83 80150 P.O.

HyperFTP a HyperCard FTP client could be modified for this purpose. I don't know, if it is Puplic Domain or ShareWare. It can be found in Info-Mac FTP archives at: sumex-aim.stanford.edu in directory: /info-mac/comm cheers, Mark <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<=========================================>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mark Fleming, Macintosh Support, Office Systems, Computing & Communicat.

There is a "HyperFTP" HyperCard stack which you might be able to modify fairly easily to do what you want... though I imagine it might be a little slow, seeing as how it's written largely HyperTalk. I'm not positive where you can get it, but ask around and if you really can't find it anywhere else tell me and I can mail a copy to you. Your only other alternatives that I know of are something based on NCSA Telnet, for which source is available but which does not handle client FTP sessions, and SU-MacIP, which handles ftp client sessions but for which I am not sure whether the source is available. You would have to talk to the people at Stanford who wrote it. I am assuming here that both ends are Macs. If not, you should be able to write a little C or shell script front end to the FTP on the non-Mac end which does what you want. It really doesn't matter which end originates. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Vincent Del Vecchio \ Disclaimer: Views expressed are not necessarily | | Box 4872 \ those of any person/group I am associated with. | | 5125 Margaret Morrison St.\ UUCP: {uunet,harvard}!andrew.cmu.edu!vd09 | | Pittsburgh, PA 15213 \ BITNET: vd09+%andrew@cmuccvma.bitnet | | (412) 268-4441 \ Internet: vd09+@andrew.cmu.edu | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

You can get this by anonymous ftp from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu (128.174.20.50).
