Hello readers,

I have a problem with ftpget() udf. Maybey you can help me.

Here is the UDF I want to use from Lonkero and Kdyer.

 Code:
 ;Function:	FTPget()
;
;Authors:	Lonkero
;		kdyer
;
;Version:	1.2 (2th of August 2007)
;
;Version History:
;		1.2 - current, added Force-parameter
;		1.1 (6th of December 2002)
;
;Action:	gets file from ftp or http server and saves it in specified file
;
;Syntax:	FTPget("URL", "TARGET", "USERNAME", "PASSWORD", FORCE)
;
;Parameters:
;		URL	- full url to the file to get
;		TARGET	- full path to file where to save
;		USERNAME- optional, specifies username to use in connection
;		PASSWORD- optional, specifies password to use in connection
;		FORCE	- optional, force udf to bypass cache
;
;Returns:

;
;		on error errorcodes returned and set:
;			1 -failed to initialize http-object

;		if FTPget("http://www.rwksystems.com/files/TypeLibViewer.exe","%temp%\typelibViewer.exe")
;			"error occured:" @error
;		else
;			"Download complete. file is saved in %temp% as typelibViewer.exe"
;		endif

    if $iForce

    endif
    exit 2
  endif

    $oFTP.Open("GET", $sURL, not 1, $sUser, $sPass)
  else
    $oFTP.Open("GET", $sURL, not 1)
  endif
  if @error
    $ftpget=3
    if $iForce
      $=writevalue($sLoc,"Syncmode5",$dwSM,"REG_DWORD")
    endif
    exit 3
  endif
  $oFTP.Send
  $oStream.Type = 1
  $oStream.Mode = 3
  $oStream.open
  $oStream.Write($oFTP.responseBody)
  if @error
    $ftpget=4
    if $iForce
      $=writevalue($sLoc,"Syncmode5",$dwSM,"REG_DWORD")
    endif
    exit 4
  endif
  $oStream.SaveToFile($sTargetFile, 2)
  if @error
    $ftpget=5
    if $iForce
      $=writevalue($sLoc,"Syncmode5",$dwSM,"REG_DWORD")
    endif
    exit 5
  endif
  $oFTP=0
  if $iForce
    $=writevalue($sLoc,"Syncmode5",$dwSM,"REG_DWORD")
  endif
  $oStream.Close
EndFunction


To run this UDF I am using the following code:
 Code:
 
$LocationFile = 10.0.0.1 + Dir("/u/prod/version.*")
$CopyTo = $locatie + "\temp\" + @WKSTA
$gebruikersnaam = "user"
$wachtwoord = "123456"

CALL \\server\netlogon\ftpget.udf
FTPget("$LocationFile", "$CopyTo", "$gebruikersnaam", "$wachtwoord")


The problem is that I cant extract the version file from te linux ftp server. I know that is has something to do with $LocationFile.

I think that the problem would be solved if I could make an connection firs en with an second option specify the location of the file.

(The reason why I want to download this version file is to see if
the client computer needs an update.)
