[Solved]Move file on ftp

[Kiesp]

The title says it all

Is there a way to move a file on a ftp server ?

I know i can just download the file and then reupload it to the new location and then delete the original file, but is there a easier, and possibly faster way ?

Nvm.. I found out how to do it. Just use the _ftp_filerename function and then use full paths

_FTP_FileRename($conn,"/place/to/move/from/file.name", "/place/to/move/to/file.name")

hope it helps someone else

You should use "rename"

ftp> pwd

ftp> ls
