FTP Commands
 

List of FTP Commands

The list on the right is the entire list of FTP commands as per the RFC.

Not all servers support the entire set, in fact most don't.
We DO NOT support the commands that control email (the batch of service commands that start with "M", e.g. "MAIL").

These commands are not necessarily the same as the ones you are used to typing in a command line ftp client.
In fact you might be surprise by the way some of the commands you are used to typing actually get translated by the client before being sent to the server.
As always, if you want the RFC it is located here.

The set beneath the main list is the group of fairly standard extensions that we also support (e.g. MKD to make a directory).
