I inteded to start an ftp connection from a beta programm. As I don't know any beta-library concerning ftp I thought I could use 'lftp'. So I made a process '/usr/bin/lftp' with some arguments. When I start the process, lftp starts without the arguments I gave in order to manage the ftp-commands by itself, but in normal mode. My next try was to start lftp from within a shellskript. The skript I created worked, but when I tried to start it from my BETA-programm it didn't start. Does anyone know how I can manage this? Thanks, Jensen -- Jens Scharnow, Dortmund jensen@nef.wh.uni-dortmund.de http://www.nef.wh.uni-dortmund.de/~jensen
