Good morning,
I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this question, but hopefully I can either be redirected, or some guru will know the answer :)
I'm trying to write an FTP script to migrate files from SERVERA to my FTP Server (FTP_Server).
To do this, I'm creating the following file and then calling it through FTP -S:<filename>
open FTP_SERVER<username><password> put "\\SERVERA\f$\File Location\MyFile.ksl" bye
Now, my manager has mentioned that he feels that by using the UNC path for the source file, I am in fact, calling the SMB protocol within the FTP protocol for the file transfer, and would therefore be negating the performance benefits of using FTP. (such as you can use HTTP within the SSL protocol).
Can anybody clear this up? Is the script going to use FTP or SMB?
Regards
Andy
