Hi there,
i have to mount an ftp volume on my mac!
I know that i can do it through Finder (CMD+K) but i need to do it with the Terminal commands!
I have SSH access on a remote Mac server, so no graphic user interface can help me!
This procedure is very simple on Linux with curlftpfs:
curlftpfs -v usr:pwd@ftp.address.com /mount
On Mac the command "curlftpfs" does not exists! What can i do?
Thanks! 🙂

open ftp://username:password@hostname
"auto-answer"
The command is:
mount_ftp user:password@ftp_address/ /Volumes/mount_ftp
You can mount a remote ftp but the folder is only "read"!
This is the same procedure that you can do with Finder (CMD+K).
Finally i can rsync the mounted volume ftp on a local folder on my Mac:
rsync -av --progress --delete --exclude='*~' --exclude='.*' --exclude='folder' /Volumes/mount_ftp /Users/user_name/Desktop/back_up_ftp
Thank you for your answer, this is another way!
