Question

Hello,

on older RUT955 works the "FTPGET" command fine. With newer RUT955 i get "-ash: ftpget: not found".

Does the command not exist enymore in "BusyBox v1.34.1"? FTPPUT works.

Thanks

By listing available applications with /bin/busybox ls there FTPGET is indeed missing.

Maybe using SCP would be an alternative for file transfer? Please check this link.

In my opinion scp does not work on a ftp server. Because I need to transfer a file from an FTP server to the RUT955. My question would be why is the FTPGET command no longer supported

FTPGET was not included in the final firmware likely due to memory savings. In order to have it, you would need to compile your own firmware image following SDK guide here.

Before executing make command, enter make menuconfig, go to Base system -> Networking utilities, add * next to ftpget, save and exit.

I've already done that and it works. Thank you for answering anyway.
