Idx problems

[era5or]

Im trying to get my eggy to do a simple task of connect to an ftp server, login with user/pass then quit
and catch if it was sucessfull or not..

I have been hunting throught the forums and tried several things, but every time i can connect but unable to send info to the ftp server..

the ftp server im using conforms to rfc so it uses.. USER | PASS as its commands eg. USER testuser ,would send username testuser to it and same for password.

here is what i have created so far, which connects but dont seem to send any other commands to the ftp

-- SCRIPT ---
proc ftpcheck {nick host hand chan} {
set idx [connect 192.168.0.5 21]
putdcc $idx "USER testuser"
putdcc $idx "PASS testpass"
putserv "privmsg test :ftp test end"
}
-- SCRIPT END --

please could someone tell me where i gone wrong and maybe give me an example script that connectes sends user / pass and then quits an ftp..

thanks

Are you sure it's not working? You don't have any code to read the response from the server so I don't know how you can tell. Also, do you ever call the proc? heh

1, yes i call the proc its linked to an onjoin bind..
2, i can tell because i see the information on my ftp window..

i can see it connect, but then nothing else seems to be sent to it..
can someone please help!

Try putting a newline on the end of each line (\n).

[snip]...maybe give me an example script that connectes sends user / pass and then quits an ftp..

Based on another connection demo (demo-connect.tcl) I made an ftp connect demo (demo-ftpconnect.tcl). It simply logs in (USER/PASS), requests the HELP and then QUITs.

Since nothing answers on 192.168.0.5 port 21, I was not able to test it on your FTPd.

Note that if you want to do intricate FTP things you may consider finding tcl ftp packages on the net.

That is a reserved LAN IP, and as such, will have never routed outside of your computer
