To send a file to an FTP server from Kali Linux, you can use several methods. Here are two common ones:
Sending Filers
### Using the `ftp` Command-Line Tool
1. **Open a terminal.**
2. **Connect to the FTP server:**
```bash
ftp 10.71.77.4 2221
```
Replace `10.71.77.4` with the FTP server's IP address and `2221` with the port number.
3. **Log in with your credentials.**
You will be prompted to enter your username and password.
4. **Navigate to the directory on the FTP server where you want to upload the file:**
```ftp
cd /path/on/ftp/server
```
Replace `/path/on/ftp/server` with the actual path where you want to upload the file.
5. **Upload the file:**
```ftp
put /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder/your_file.txt
```
Replace `/home/maverick/Desktop/Folder/your_file.txt` with the path to your local file.
6. **Close the connection:**
```ftp
bye
```
### Using `curl` Command-Line Tool
1. **Open a terminal.**
2. **Use the `curl` command to upload the file:**
```bash
curl -T /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder/your_file.txt ftp://10.71.77.4:2221/path/on/ftp/server/ --user your_username:your_password
```
- `-T /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder/your_file.txt`: Specifies the local file to upload.
- `ftp://10.71.77.4:2221/path/on/ftp/server/`: Specifies the FTP server address, port, and remote directory.
- `--user your_username:your_password`: Specifies the FTP credentials.
### Example
If you want to upload a file named `example.txt` from `/home/maverick/Desktop/Folder` to the root directory of the FTP server:
- **Using `ftp`:**
```bash
ftp 10.71.77.4 2221
# Login with credentials
cd /path/on/ftp/server
put /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder/example.txt
bye
```
- **Using `curl`:**
```bash
curl -T /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder/example.txt ftp://10.71.77.4:2221/ --user your_username:your_password
```
Make sure to replace placeholders with your actual values. If you encounter any issues or need more help, let me know!
Sending Folder
To send a folder from your Kali Linux machine to an FTP server, you can use several tools and methods. Here's a detailed guide for some common approaches:
### Method 1: Using `lftp`
`lftp` is a powerful FTP client that supports recursive uploads of directories.
1. **Install `lftp` if it's not already installed:**
```bash
sudo apt-get install lftp
```
2. **Use `lftp` to upload the folder recursively:**
```bash
lftp -u your_username:your_password -e "mirror -R /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder /path/on/ftp/server; quit" ftp://10.71.77.4:2221
```
- `-u your_username:your_password`: Your FTP username and password.
- `mirror -R /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder /path/on/ftp/server`: Uploads the folder `/home/maverick/Desktop/Folder` to `/path/on/ftp/server` on the FTP server.
- `quit`: Exits `lftp` after the upload completes.
### Method 2: Using `ncftp`
`ncftp` provides another way to upload directories recursively.
1. **Install `ncftp` if it's not already installed:**
```bash
sudo apt-get install ncftp
```
2. **Use `ncftpput` to upload the folder:**
```bash
ncftpput -R -u your_username -p your_password -P 2221 10.71.77.4 /path/on/ftp/server /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder
```
- `-R`: Recursive upload.
- `-u your_username -p your_password`: Your FTP username and password.
- `-P 2221`: Port number.
- `10.71.77.4`: FTP server IP address.
- `/path/on/ftp/server`: Remote directory on the FTP server.
- `/home/maverick/Desktop/Folder`: Local folder to upload.
### Method 3: Using `curl` with `tar`
If you prefer not to install additional tools, you can compress the folder into a single file and then upload it.
1. **Compress the folder into a tarball:**
```bash
tar -czvf Folder.tar.gz -C /home/maverick/Desktop Folder
```
This creates a compressed file `Folder.tar.gz`.
2. **Upload the tarball using `curl`:**
```bash
curl -T /home/maverick/Desktop/Folder.tar.gz ftp://10.71.77.4:2221/path/on/ftp/server/ --user your_username:your_password
```
3. **Extract the tarball on the FTP server (if you have shell access):**
If you have SSH access to the server, you can extract the tarball:
```bash
tar -xzvf Folder.tar.gz
```
Choose the method that best fits your situation. If you encounter any issues or have specific requirements, let me know!
