Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Same time ftp download in perl multiple sites. Post 302277446 by Rhije on Friday 16th of January 2009 09:57:20 AM

Lets see..

So lets call the perl script that does all the ftp stuff, ftp.pl

In the ftp.pl , the script allows 1 argument, that is the site that is needing to be transfered to/from.

Code:
hostfile="hosts.txt"

for host in `cat $hostfile`; do
     perl ftp.pl $host &
done

That is assuming that you have all of the hosts inside of a file called hosts.txt (that way you can just add append additional hosts to the bottom). Easy as pie. If you want, you can use rsync, scp, rcp..whatever in linux.

ftp(4)								   File Formats 							    ftp(4)

NAME

       ftp - FTP client configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/default/ftp

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment  lines and
       are ignored.

   Behavior Directives
       The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:

       FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no

	   The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to
	   make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes
	   by default.

       If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that	is
       specified in /etc/default/ftp.
