How to use GREP in FTP client where Destination Machine is Unix based? I want to find files containing specific string amoung all files but i can not initiate telnet session. I can only initiate FTP session and needed to find files/string in various folders & subfolders. Kindly help.
A:
grep is not part of the standard ftp commands. I'm afraid you'll have to make do with ls. As far as I know it doesn't support searching through subfolders though. See this thread for another client.
