Renaming Remote Files 

Youcan rename remote files using the RENAME command as follows:

     ftp> RENAME  remotefile newfile 

To rename a file in other than the working directory on a UNIX-type
system, include the directory name with the  newfile parameter as you
normally would on the UNIX system as follows:

     ftp> RENAME  remotefile directoryname/newfile 


WARNING If the new file name you specify already exists on the remote system, the remote system may overwrite the existing file without warning.
