mput -r should do it.

ok pls help with what i would put after mput -r????
lol

Best way would be to tar everything up first

e.g. tar zcvf mybackup.tar.gz *

Then in ftp
put mybackup.tar.gz

so when i SSH onto my server i type tar zcvf mybackup.tar.gz *

then FTP to my backup server and type what?


many thanks for this
