I'm trying to use a batch file to download a package off my FTP server.

echo username >ftp.txt
echo >>ftp.txt
echo cd directory  >>ftp.txt
echo get filename >>ftp.txt

ftp -s:ftp.txt server.com

The server is set to allow anonymous logins on username but when I run the script I get an error: 331 Password required for username

If there is any other useful information let me know.

Solution 1:

Try "anonymous" as the login and an email address as the password. This is a very old standard for anonymous FTP.
