I think I've tried almost everything from the lftp man. -f or -c as suggested dont work at all :-( first.. great post

Simply because i thoughed "glob -d mirror Foobar.*" would actually work on dirs. Which it does NOT. So what i'm really looking for is a way to mirror everydir containing a certain word. "glob -d mirror *Foobar" only mirrored the FIRST dir matching "Foobar". :( Any ideas? Rehi,
