NAME
       afpcmd - Transfer files over the networking using the Apple Filing Pro‐
       tocol (AFP)

SYNOPSIS
       afpcmd [-r [afp url]

DESCRIPTION
       afpcmd is a command-line tool to help transfer  files  to  and  from  a
       server  using  AFP.  This is typically either Netatalk or Mac OS or Mac
       OS X.

       This can be done as a non-root user. It offers  either  an  interactive
       command-line (like a traditional FTP client) or for batch retrievals.

       Do  not	confuse	 this with the FUSE mounting tools (mount_afp, afpfsd,
       afp_client), which offer the ability to mount an entire filesystem.

OPTIONS
       -r sets the recursive flag.

       afp url uses the standard AFP URL format.

AFP version support
       Look at the afpfs-ng documentation for more information on specific AFP
       version compatibility information.

Batch mode
       Batch file transfers can be done in one of two ways:

       afpcmd -r [afp url to directory]

       This does a recursive transfer of all subdirectories and files locally.

       afpcmd [afp url to file]

       This transfers just the file locally.

       After either of these is finished, the command exits.

Interactive mode
       If  a  URL  is provided on the command line, afpcmd connects and enters
       the volume and directory specified.

       Standard readline  keystrokes  are  enabled.   Command  line  competion
       (using  tab)  and history (using up and down arrows) is provided. Local
       filename completion is enabled.

       Most common commands

       connect <afp URL>: Connect to server, change to volume and directory

       cd: Change directories on the server

       get <filename>: retrieve file

       get -r <directory>: Recursively retrieve the directory

       put <filename>: Upload file

       quit: Quit

       Conect/disconnect commands

       disconnect: Disconnect from current server

       passwd: Prompts for a new password without showing on screen

       user <user>: Set the user

       passwd: change the password on the server. Does not work.

       Remote directory commands

       pwd: Show current directory on server

       mkdir <directory>: create new directory

       rmdir <directory: remove directory

       ls or dir: show files in current directory

       Remote file commands

       mv or rename old_file new_file: Rename <old file> to <new file>

       touch <filename>: Create a blank file

       view <filename>: Show file

       chmod: <file> <mode>: Change the mode of a file on the server

       delete of rm: <file>: Remove file from the server

       Status commands

       df: Show the disk size and available blocks.

       Local commands

       lpwd: Show current local

       lcd: Change local directory

       Other commands

       help or ?: show help

       testafp: various tests for developers

AFP URLs
       A typical usage of afpcmd is:

       afpcmd afp://username:password@servername/volume

       The complete syntax of a URL is:

       afp://username;AUTH=authtype:password@server:port/volume/path

       If a password of "-" is provided, the user is prompted for a password.
