Hi Daniel,Thanks for your replies.> I think the ftp connection will not be closed after each upload.

You think wrong. If you use curl to upload a single file, both the connections

are always closed. -> I saw the following point under the internal design under persistent connection at http://curl.haxx.se/docs/internals.html"When the transfer operation is complete, we try to leave the connection
   open. Particular options may tell us not to, and protocols may signal
   closure on connections and then we don't keep it open of course."I am not sure if this is the same for a normal FTP uploading and if there is option to be set how should i go about it?I think i read it somewhere that there is a config file that you can create to load it while using curl.

They "seem" so? How do you determine that and why do you think curl is to

blame? -> I am not blaming curl that is for sure. I am just trying to find out more. For example, what i did was to test for example 1000 files uploading to the ftp server over the span of 5 minutes.At the 5th minutes the connection to the ftp is close to 1000. That is why i am asking if the connection is being closed once the transfer is over.

When curl exits, it cannot keep the connection open.I might be doing it the wrong way. Please do share with me.Thanks!
