Copying files from windows shared location to linux box
Hi, i am new to shell scripting. i have a requirement to copy the files from a windows shared location( vendor will place the files here) to Linux server( my Informatica will pick the files from this location). Files should be loaded in the order in which they were placed in windows box.(Based on the time stamp in windows box).
Please help me with this.

There are some ways to solve this, but I think the most simple is to mount the windows-share so you can treat those files like local files.
Search this site for Samba (a part of this software package will enable you to mount the windows-share) to get an idea if this approach fits for your environment.
