Hey do you guys know if it's possible to set up a queue of files to upload to multiple servers? For example if I have 10 files that I want to upload to 10 different agencies, I would have to wait for it to upload to one, then connect to another and so on... I'd like to know if it's possible to set it up to do that automatically while I do something else :).

It's a kludge, but you could always just use FTP and open 10 different instances of the FTP client, each uploading to a different server. They would be uploading simultaneously, but at 1/10 the speed.

hmmmmmm.....ya gots me thinkin now!

If FZ can't do it directly, then I wonder if FZ take command line parameters?
If it can take command line, then it's a matter of putting together a script.

Hmmmmmm.....

From the FZ forums:
"No. FileZilla can't do automated transfers. Only automatic login to server is possible. And this won't change."

However, there are other clients out there that can either be scripted or accept command line parameters.

Gee thanks!
You've sent me on a quest now..LOL
