Hi,
I need to install ftp client program to run on a debian embedded machine.
It is needed for activate ftp command from the console prompt.
Thanks

It’s worth noting that as of Ubuntu Hardy and Debian Lenny that the “ncftp2″ package is now gone. You’ll have to get it from Gutsy (Ubuntu) or Etch (Debian) if you want it.

The only problem I have run into with ncftp2 is that it doesn’t have large file support. And it’s highly unlikely that it will be fixed anytime soon as the author has decided not to continue maintaining it because of problems with curses implementations. It’s too bad, really, since I really prefer 2.4.3′s interface over 3.x’s. Not to mention, ncurses (though I dunno if the author has problems with ncurses or not) seems to be more or less standard across the board on reasonably-modern Unix systems.
