Ok, on the old back up Blue Arc system you were able to use wild cards *.* to delete old files, but on the new NAS system it does not recognize wild cards. I need to delete old back up files and I can not do this one at a time. Is there a solution here. Thanks in advance.

Hello designguy!

If I'm not mistaken, you are FTP'ing to your NAS space, corret? If so, then use the command "mdelete *.*" or if they are all the same file extension, then you should be able to do a more specific "mdelete *.htm" or something similar depending on file extensions. The "mdelete" command in FTP deletes multiple files.

I hope this helps you out!

Thanks PD2! That is what I was looking for. Just FYI for those who came from the Blue Arc Backup the rm or del or delete will not work with wild cards.

Thanks again for you reply.

The new FTP solution uses more standardized FTP commands, so if you need to use globbing you can use mput, or mget, or mdel with wild cards.
