The system I'm using is win2000. I want to use ftp's mget command to batch download files, but it keeps asking for confirmation. What parameter should I add?

The mget command doesn't seem to have such a parameter. But you can use an FTP script file to achieve this function. However, if the number of files to be downloaded is uncertain, then it's not easy to handle. How to use the script file: ftp -s:script.ftp Example of a script file: open ftp.server.ip.address port anonymous test@the.net cd /yourdir mget * y y y y y q bye Since each file needs a y, if the number of files is uncertain, there's no way to know how many y's to put. The FTP functionality in Windows is too weak. I suggest you use wget instead of it.

Thanks, expert climbing. Yesterday I checked some materials and found that as long as you add n to prompt in ftp to exit interactive mode, mget can download directly without any parameters.
