Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

You can run the rmdir command to delete a specified directory from the remote FTP server.

Precautions

Before running the rmdir command to delete a directory, you must delete all files and subdirectories from the directory.
If no path is specified when you delete a subdirectory, the subdirectory is deleted from the current directory.
The directory is deleted from the FTP server rather than the FTP client.
