Thanks for your reply Daniel!

I am currently using a build of curl-7.21.1.

I think I was confusing libcurl by using the fullpath of
ftp://localhost/ftp/ftpdbg/MyTestContract/remote.txt
when doing my upload, instead of using
ftp://localhost/MyTestContract/remote.txt (although the entry dir is
/ftp/ftpdbg),
which works better.
I was storing the entry path of "/ftp/ftpdbg" and adding it to my url when
doing the upload.
I thought it was necessary to supply the whole absolute path.

On a side note I think the docs for WILDCARDMATCH should be updated to state
that using DIRLISTONLY 1 will prevent
a correct file list being returned, due to the behavior of
Curl_ftp_parselist, in ftplistparser.c.
Curl_ftp_parselist expects a dir listing in "extended" format (ls -l) and
not just a list of file names.

/Mehmet.
