ftp directory

I have to write a script on ServerA in which I need to copy the directories/files from ServerB (all files under sub-directories as well).

Code:

ServerA

DirectoryA/SubDirectory1
           SubDirectory2
           SubDirectory3


ServerB

DirectoryB/SubDirectory1
           SubDirectory2
           SubDirectory3

DirectoryA is not equal to DirectoryB

But the respective sub-directory names are same.

How Can I write my script using ftp.

I would install ncftp if you don't already have it. It has non-interactive command line versions ncftpget/ncftpput that can get and put entire directory trees with the -R option.

Thanks for the help. I don't have ncftp and don't have possibility of installing it. How can I obtain the same with ftp?

Have scp? That would be even better.
