DESCRIPTION

16       edg-gridftp-rmdir removes the directory from a GridFTP server.  This
17       command will return a status of 0 if the directory was successfully
18       removed.  In all other cases, it will return a non-zero value and print
19       an error message to the standard error.
20
21       If more than one URL is given, then a successful return will only occur
22       if all of the URLs were successfully deleted.  The processing will stop
23       with the first failure.
24

OPTIONS

26       --proxy=proxy
27           Set the proxy to use for the GridFTP operation.  If this is unset,
28           then the underlying GridFTP library will try to find the proxy in
29           the usual locations.  This is useful if the proxy is in a non-
30           standard location, or the caller is a daemon which must act on the
31           behalf of a user.
32
33       --timeout=timeout
34           Set the overall time (in seconds) within which all the directory
35           removals must complete. If no timeout is specified a default 120
36           second timeout will be used.  A negative or zero timeout will
37           report a timeout error before attempting to contact any of the FTP
38           servers. If a timeout error does happen then some of the
39           directories may already have been removed.
40
41       --usage
42           Short description of the usage of this command is given.
43
44       --help
45           A description of the usage of this command and information on all
46           of the options is given.
47
48       URL URLs of the following formats are accepted:
49
50           ftp://ftp.server.org//absolute/file/name
51           gsiftp://gridftp.server.org/~/home/relative/name.txt
52           gridftp://gridftp.server.org/home/relative/name.txt
53
54           Note: for the URLs without a tilde, the server configuration
55           determines whether the filename is absolute or relative.  On
56           servers which do not restrict users to their home areas, the tilde
57           notation will not work.
