I am trying to schedule a regular unattended upload of a directory tree to a remote FTPS (not SFTP) server using lftp. The challenge I am facing is the target server permissions are write only.



The mirror command fails as it can't read the target directory, and put only works with files. I would prefer not to deal with archiving the directory before uploading it or trying to manually write directory copy logic that will may need maintenance in the future.



I looked through the lftp man pages and did not see anything that might help. Is there a flag in mirror I am overlooking or some other command that would put everything without the need for read access? I am open to other ftp client options but lftp seems the best option.
