FTP Harvesting ?
I tried to use RapidMiner for replacing an old shell script (linux/debian/squeeze/bash) where I use the "wget" function. If you have a look at wget's manpage (http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html#FTP-Options), you will see that it is possible to grab files over FTP servers. How do you do that with RapidMiner ?
I have tried with the crawler and with "get page" and it does not work...
Best regards.

Hail crappy wild man with long red beard from the north,
for anonymous ftp you can use the Open File operator with resource type "URL". It does not support authentication though, so for non-anonymous ftp you would have to call e.g. wget with the Execute Program operator.

@zerrow did you see this thread? http://community.rapidminer.com/t5/RapidMiner-Studio-Forum/Read-files-from-FTP/m-p/28180/highlight/true#M20620
There appears to be the ability to pass the ftp://user:password@yourdomain.com via the Read CSV.
