Hi James,

  Seems like issue in FTP command, see below

copy disk ftp 166.38.50.249 C:\ Columbus_WAAS.pcap JimsTest1_000$

here is how it should be

copy disk ftp 166.38.50.249 (FTP_Folder_on_FTP_Server) (Filename on remote FTP server) (Local filename)

So if FTP server folder is the root of FTP server then simply define "/" See below example

copy disk ftp 172.16.1.20 / UcliEvt.log UcliEvt.log

Enter username for remote ftp server:

Hope this helps.

Ahskhan,

Thanks so much for your quick response! Should FTP server be C:\temp or only temp? In my example, I was using root directory C:\

Thanks,

Ahskhan,

Disregard my last email, I didn't look at your example. Using it, I got it to work!

Thanks very much!
