Using CURL for FTP

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

Hello,

I am using curl command to interact with the FTP server. I have gathered some information around downloading / uploading of files using curl command.
However, I couldn't find any information around

1) Listing all the files on FTP server in any given folder having a specific extn.
( ls *.config )
2) Moving files across different folders on FTP server

In short, I am looking out for information which details about using FTP commands on FTP server using curl command.

It will be really helpful. Thanks in advance !!

Is it helpful to use ssh and here document to get the things done.

The ftp server needs SSL authentication so I can not use ftp or sftp :wall:
