AIX .netrc script 1

[necsi]

I am having difficulty trying to get my .netrc script to login into a Win-NT server and 'mput' one file on the server.
For some reason it does not like my macdef init line.
An example would be great.
The user login owns the .netrc and the permissions are set
to 600. I can manually run 'ftp' and all works fine.

Your macros need to end with a blank line...

Elgis helped me with the same problem a few weeks ago. An example........

machine 73.146.96.16 login mikeymac password 123456
macdef init
put /usr/bin/tacosalad.txt tacosalad.txt
bye
INSERT A BLANK LINE (AKA: Null Line Terminator!) HERE!!!!
