Transferring files from one unix server to another one was easy for me. I used a relative path which worked for me. thanks to porter.

My question now is that:-

1)Say for instance i have one unix server with name(ABC). PATH: /home/web/props . I have bunch of different users folders in that props directory. for eg dia/downloads or alex/downloads.. etc..

2) I have another unix server (XYZ). URL: /home/webapps/users

What i wanted to do is copy whatever is inside /home/web/props from ABC unix server to XYZ unix server under /home/web/webapps. If its a new user then create a directory by the same name under XYZ.

Hope you all can understand. Is it possible? how any clues? any links i can read

Bottom Line: I would like to copy each and every folder under props directory from ABC unix server to XYZ unix server. If directory exist then just do a simple secure transfer copy if not then create a directory.
Thanks

you can use recursive rcp or tar the directory you want to transfer and then extract it in the desired directory

Thanks rakesh. Can you give me an example or may be a link which i can read?

thanks rakesh. well the script is not different from the secure directory copy command. anyways thanks for your effor and i will try to do more research on it to see if i can accomplish that goal.

Thanks
