send file with FTP from small Linux Version

[thosecars82]

Hello
I have this problem.
I need to do this:
I got a small version of Linux installed in some small devices. These devices come from the provider with this small version of Linux installed.

This devices should send data to some other machine in the internet. I have tested wput for this purpose with a PC which has an Ubuntu version 10 and it works fine. However, when I try wput in the small device, I get an error. It seems that the wput might need some libraries to work with the small version of Linux installed in the small device.

The fact of using wput or not is optional. I just need being able to send files through ftp with this small version of Linux.

The thing is that to be able to run wput in this small version of Linux, it seems that many of the needed libraries were missing. So what I did was just install all the needed libraries. But still the wput program fails in its first line.

Could please anyone help me with any idea?

Thanks

Have you tried recompiling wput yourself and using that instead?

what about plain old ftp?
you can use a ~/.netrc file to automate if you like, e.g:

machine blah
login blah
password blah
macdef init 
cd feeds
prompt
mput *.php
dir
bye

make sure .netrc is chmod 600
