How to search for the file or folder I want on an FTP? Scripts or tools can be used.

echo open ip>1.txt
echo username>>1.txt
echo password>>1.txt
echo ls>>1.txt
echo bye>>1.txt
ftp -s:1.txt>1.log
findstr /b /e /c:"donghua" 1.log>2.txt && goto :cd
goto :eof
:cd
for /f "delims=" %%i in (2.txt) do set fdname=%%i
echo open ip>1.txt
echo username>>1.txt
echo password>>1.txt
echo cd %fdname%>>1.txt
ftp -s:1.txt

The above mainly completes the process of logging in to the folder that the owner wants to log in to each time when logging in to FTP. It was tested successfully under XP, but there are 2 problems:
1. If you want to find a Chinese file name, it is not possible. If the directory name listed by ls under FTP is in Chinese, it will be represented in other ways. I don't know if it is a problem with the FTP server settings.
2. It can only find the directory name in the root directory after FTP login. If the desired directory is in a subdirectory of the directory, it cannot be completed. For example, if the donghua directory is in "root directory\123\donghua" of FTP, it cannot be found. The parameter of dir in FTP is invalid, so I don't know how to find all subdirectories of a specified directory similar to the function of dir /s.

Thanks in advance.!.. The key is to traverse and search all subdirectories under the FTP directory. Hope everyone can discuss more.


to vkill
.You mean the p-ftpls.BAT, I don't know how to use the parameters of the batch file you wrote specifically.
Can you send an example for reference, to achieve finding a file (traversing and searching all subdirectories under the FTP directory)

Just downloaded p-ftpls.BAT -s. Tried it out. It feels like it takes a really long time. Is there a way to make it a bit shorter in time?

I took a look at vkill's p-ftpls.bat and it completely dashed my hopes, but for the requirements of the thread starter, it can actually be achieved. First, use p-ftpls to traverse all directories and export to a text file, then use a batch script to perform the subsequent operations needed.

I spent more than 20 minutes traversing an FTP. Oh my. I don't know if you guys know if there are ready-made software (software developed with VC, VB, .NET, etc.). I want to use those advanced software which might handle traversal faster.

The title of LZ has no restrictions in cmd. If it's Windows, you can try using flashfxp.
