Provided you don't want the subdirectories of the current directory as well, you can do: prompt mget * If you need the subdirectory and the remote server doesn't support tar archive downloads, you'll need to install a 3rd-party FTP client. There are lots of them. Don't ask for opinions, just try all the clients in the ftp category of the ports collection: http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ftp.html Pick the one you like the most. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
