FTP in parallel.

Hi,

Can anyone let me know how I can run FTP scripts in parallel. I have a script for each file to perform an FTP from mainframe to Unix. I have many files that I need to transfer and each of them is thru a script. I want to run all the scripts in parallel to reduce the time taken for FTP. Please help.

Regards,

You may want to call (and background) them from a "meta script" ...

#! /bin/bash

sh script.1.sh &
sh script.2.sh &
sh script.3.sh &

exit 0

LFTP has explicit parallel file transfer support.
