Mac OS X Scheduled FTP Upload - 01-09-2012, 01:55 PM


I've been searching for quite some time without success.

All I want to do is schedule file uploads to start at night to three different FTP destinations.
Been looking into CyberDuck, ForkLift, Captain FTP, Panic Transmit already. They don't support what I have in mind.

Any advice?

you can setup a cron to do it, you would have to create a shell script, then define the schedule.

Thanks. I read it but I didn't really understand it.

Isn't there an easy and comfortable way to schedule a file upload?

The short answer is no. But having said that, using tools like the automator, Apple script, and cron (scheduler) it should be very straight forward. Google is your friend.
