in reply to script for accessing ftp servers

A FTP server usually doesn't give access to the whole file system, but rather to a well defined directory. This is for security reasons -- you wouldn't want to give a FTP user full access to all files in your system.

So you can't expect absolut paths with drive letters to work (well, you can expect them to work, but they won't).

So find out how the FTP server is configured, and use a path relative to the FTP server's root directory.
