FTP tranfer script

sheriweb · #1 (**permalink**) 10-04-2008

Hello everyone

I have two UNIX servers and every day I want to automatically move files from server2 to server1 every day
Server1 Folder
/mkg/billing

Server2 Folder
/lh2/kly/billing

I need a FTP file transfer script, plus I don’t need the same files from server2 move every day only the files that was created that day on server2

thanks

Code:

find /path/to/files/on/server2 -type f -mtime -1 > tmpfile
awk ' BEGIN {  print "OPEN server1"
                    print "USER yourusername yourpassword"
                    print "cd /path/to/files/on/server1"
                    print "lcd /path/to/files/on/server2"
                    print "verbose "
                  }
                  { print "put ", $0 }
         END { print "bye" } ' tmpfile | ftp -n > /path/to/ftp/log

Try this for a starting point.
