LFTP Reconnect infinite loop

lftp, reconnect

Solution

ok found it:

lftp -e "set net:max-retries 2;set net:reconnect-interval-base 5;set net:reconnect-interval-multiplier 1 ;mirror  -v --just-print '/tmp/md1/' '/tmp/m2'" sftp://example.com

Problem

When I try to connect to the host that is dwon I get the following message: ``` cd `sftp://example.com/tmp' [Delaying before reconnect: 30] ``` After each attempt delay sis increasing. I found the following command that should help me: ``` repeat -d 10 -c 1 ``` which should delay by only 10 seconds (instead of default 30) and repeat th ecommand only once. But still I get Delaying reconnect in endless loop.
