report generation

Hello,
I got a requirement in writing a sheel script in unix, please help me out

the requirement is there are two folders Folder1 and Folder2 and there are same files in the different folders. like file1,file2 in folder1 and file1 and file2 in folder2.

I would like to compare all the similar files in the two folders and generate a report where this report should have filename and Matched(Y/N)

If the files are similar then Y else N.

Thanks in advance

Mahesh

So F1 & F2 contains the same file. And what is

Hi try this,

If ur in folder1, then

echo " Filename Matched(Y/N) " >> Output_file

for i in `ls`
do
diff $i path_0f_folder2/.
if [ $? -eq 0 ]
then
echo " $i Y" >> Output_file
else
echo " $i N" >> Output_file
fi
done


Thanks
