It seems working, but not able to use in cmd line. lftp -c pget -n 5 -O tgt src, works fine , but not able to run with repeat from cmd line. I am trying to use the following

lftp repeat -d 60 --until-ok pget -n 5 -O tgt src

I think you're missing a "-c".

lftp -c repeat -d 60 --until-ok pget -n 5 -O tgt src

Otherwise, what's the error message (if any) or output you are getting?
