I am connecting to a remote server that requires that I change my password every 90 days (WS_FTP Pro). The command to do that is "CPWD oldpass newpass".

I would like to do it using a script but I can't figure out how to send the CPWD command using lftp.

Suggestions?

You want quote (your command). So, in your case, quote CPWD oldpass newpass
