Re: [Jython-users] how to do a 'quote' command with ftplib

[Samuele P. <ped...@bl...>]

Hi, I hope the following excerpt of a ftp session
with a server that does not understand the command guardian
and quote can help.

ftp> quote guardian
500 'GUARDIAN': command not understood.
ftp> quote quote guardian
500 'QUOTE guardian': command not understood.
ftp>

quote is a meta-command :)

regards
