You can't use Kermit scripts to do ftp transfers. FTP is
not a built-in protocol in C-Kermit. Although it has an "ftp"
command, all this does is run the external ftp program.
Integrating FTP into Kermit has been on our list for some
time, but our list is long and the amount of volunteer help
isn't what it used to be.
A feature that might allow ftp transfers to be scripted
(without actually building ftp protocol into C-Kermit) will
be added in C-Kermit 6.1. Watch this space for announcements.
