Is it possible to mount FTP Accessible File system? Any utilities available to do that?

Use midnight commander - mc.

That will only show me the files list in ncurses IF... How can I run rpm command on the files displays in mc?

Philip

TIA With regards,

[snip] in mc just do this.... cd ftp://username@ip_address

I do get connected and can use cd command... Problem is that if I want to install certain RPMs and I give rpm on command line it says cannot execute command on non-local file system :-(

Any way I got the solution in ftpfs Kernel module... Was trying out various solutions given by nice guys like you...

Thanks a lot...
