Is there a way to handle this ??? All I need is to check weather the file that was transferred was succesful (there are cases where the file transferred was not complete), otherwise we need to run the script again and that's a real pain for me. And we don't have the delete permissions on the remote server. The same command (size $rem_file) works fine at FTP prompt. Please advice me to get the file size on the remote server. Thanx	[reply]
