lftp set ftp:* per connection

Hi there,

I want to run several jobs in parallel on different ftp servers and I was wondering whether it is possible to
make settings like ftp:ssl-protect-data on a per connection level, rather than setting them globally
(preferably without adding bookmarks).

Thanks a lot

Regards,

Johannes Scholz

set ftp:ssl-protect-data/example.com yes
set ftp:ssl-protect-data/example.org no

LFTP Issues Connecting to SOCKS Proxy

I am trying to configure my LFTP FTP session to use a SOCKS Proxy (Dante v1.2.0) on my server
gateway.mydomain.com on port 1080 with no success.  Dante does not require any authentication to
connect outbound.  Near as I can tell it doesn't even attempt a connection to the proxy server, which I
know is working since other processes use it readily.

Based on what documentation I can find I have set the following variables:
SOCKS5_PROXY=gateway.mydomain.com:1080
SOCKS_PROXY=gateway.mydomain.com:1080

When I run LFTP, I attempt the following sets of commands in the shell with no connection:

Session Information (with no ftp:proxy):
  lftp :~> set net:timeout 30
  lftp :~> set net:max-retries 2
  lftp :~> debug 9
  lftp :~> open ftp://myUser:myPasswd <at> 64.3.120.162
  ---- Resolving host address...
  ---- 1 address found: 64.3.120.162

  ---- Connecting to 64.3.120.162 (64.3.120.162) port 21

{Spam?} "batch" lftp return code 0 when it shouldn't? (what am I doing wrong)

A problem I am attempting to troubleshoot is that lftp returns an return
code of 0, despite the fact that it can't login to the remote server and
the rest of the commands run also fail.

If I do the exact same commands manually, then lftp returns a code of 1
(expected).

So for example, let's assume we are going to run lftp using a command
script

lftp -f t.cmd

and t.cmd contains the following..

open -p 990 serverA
user bill fred
cd /
close
quit

now, the username and password I'm using are incorrect, so the ftp process
can't authenticate so this "job" will fail, I was expecting lftp to behave
similiar to manual mode in which this behavior causes lftp to return a
non-zero code of 1.

[root <at> serverB]:[/tmp] > lftp -f t2.prm
---- Resolving host address...
---- 1 address found: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
---- Connecting to serverA (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) port 990

Change the "cd /" line like this:
cd / || exit 1

Starting with lftp-4.1.0 you can:

   local bookmark add NAME

Then a bookmark to file:/dir/path is created.

You can either !ls or do this

   local ls
or
   alias lls local ls
