How to read multiline response from FTP server?
12:29 19 Mar 2015

I am writing FTP client program in C. I am use blocking socket. I have put recv () in while loop and I break it when last two received characters are \r\n. I am able to run it on some servers but it doesn't read whole message on some servers like ftp.secyt.gov.ar.

I think the problem is because of the messages from server which contains characters \r \n together.

How should I deal with such case?

After sending the user name and password to server at ftp.secyt.gov.ar, I want to print the message received from server.

password = getpass("Password: ");
sprintf(pass, "PASS %s\r\n",password);

send(sockfd, pass, strlen(pass), 0);

while((no_of_bytes = recv(sockfd, message_from_server, MAXSZ, 0)) > 0)
{
    message_from_server[no_of_bytes] = '\0';
    printf("%s\n", message_from_server);

    if (message_from_server[no_of_bytes-2] == '\r' &&
        message_from_server[no_of_bytes-1] == '\n')
        break;
}

Server sends this message:
