Connecting to a Ftp server under Ms-Dos






The ftp command allows you to get connected using command lines. Some of these options provide an automatic connection; this is done through a list of commands store on a text file. 

ftp -i -s:cmd_ftp.txt



On cmd_ftp.txt go to the following line: 

open ftp.kioskea.net
user MyLogin MyPassword
binary


You will be able to select a specific port, simply by adding the port number after the server name (don't forget to leave a space between each value).

Just try it:
Start / Run / cmd /k ftp -?

For advance options, its recommended that you use the ncftp command, note that the server must be download and installed before use:

ncftp : http://www.ncftp.com/download/
