Site (-SITE)

Use the Site adapter command (-SITE) to send an FTP server specific site command to the FTP server software.

-SITE ‘command_text’

	Option	Description
	‘command_text’	Specify the FTP-server-specific site command
		(enclosed in single quotes) to send to the FTP server
		software
For example:

-SITE ‘namefmt=1’

sends the NAMEFMT command to an AS/400 FTP server before files are transferred.

To see what commands are accepted by the server use a BSD-based command line client (typically the FTP command installed with your Windows or UNIX operating system) and log in to the server and type the following from the ftp>

prompt: quote HELP SITE or quote SITE HELP.

Note The command specified by -SITEis executed prior to the files being transferred.
