@prologic Fun fact: I set up new FTP stuff at work today. It was the easiest way to transfer files from a Windows machine to a Linux box.

@prologic I am indeed serious. 😅

I wanted to spent as little time as possible with this Windows machine. Also, I didn't want to introduce any new maintainence burdens. Using *any* third-party software would have caused the latter. 😢

PowerShell/Windows has a built-in FTP client. Basically this:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1867385/upload-files-with-ftp-using-powershell/1868367#1868367k

(I tried to use ftp.exe first, but that thing doesn't support passive FTP, which we need.)

The FTP *server* already existed anyway. (You don’t want to know why.)

Missing transport encryption aside (this runs in our internal network only, so it’s okay-ish to accept), I don’t think this is the worst solution, to be honest.

@movq "[…] The FTP server already existed anyway. (You don’t want to know why.) […]" — Ah, well, that tidbit of information was missing on the referred twt. If the server already existed, what was it that you setup?

@movq ahh, wow, sorry dude, my condolences! I haven't worked on a Windows machine for over five years. I did Windows administration before (have an MCSA, and an MCSE), but was moved to a different role that doesn't involve it, thankfully. For everything Windows (I use a VDI exclusively for email) related—troubleshooting, etc—I just open a ticket with the MS Infrastructure. 😂
