I am creating a DTS package and after creating a .txt file
I would like to FTP it to my unix machine... The FTP task
seems to only be able to specify Intenet as a source, not
as a destination. Anybody has any idea if I am just doing
something wrong? Do I have to write a script that would
do it (VBScript can't FTP if I am correct?). What do you
use?

Thanks.

Branka,
No, you aren't doing anything wrong. The FTP task supports
FTP gets(retrieve) but not FTP puts(send). You can use the
command line ftp. You can execute this with Execute Process
task. It's sometimes easier to use an FTP script file for
the ftp commands and execute ftp using this script file. To
use a file, the command is:
ftp -sC:\PathToYour\FTPFile
In the file, you would just enter the following:
open <ftp site>
<login>
<password>
put <path to file you want to send>
bye
