Re: Monitoring Software??

Assuming that you are a developer, you should be able to easily write such a script either using a shell or perl or C. Check for the presence of a file every n seconds (or whatever time interval) in a directory, and when one found, run another script, etc. etc.

Hi everybody,

I am currently setting up a web site for customers to place orders. Having placed the order the file will be downloaded onto the Unix server (SCO UNIX v 5.0.4). At this point I need to be able to monitor the system for the file being resident and if it is then perform an action on it, possibly set a script off running passing the filename as a parameter. The monitor should be looking for the file every few seconds so I require something which does not hog the machine.

Anybody out there who can point me in the right direction.

bup-web

bup-ftp(1)						      General Commands Manual							bup-ftp(1)

NAME

       bup-web - Start web server to browse bup repositiory

SYNOPSIS

       bup web [[hostname]:port]

DESCRIPTION

       bup web	starts	a web server that can browse bup repositories.	The file hierarchy is the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1) and
       bup-ftp(1).

       hostname and port default to 127.0.0.1 and 8080, respectively, and hence bup web will only offer up  the  web  server  to  locally  running
       clients.  If you'd like to expose the web server to anyone on your network (dangerous!) you can omit the bind address to bind to all avail-
       able interfaces: :8080.

EXAMPLE

	      $ bup web
	      Serving HTTP on 127.0.0.1:8080...
	      ^C

	      $ bup web :8080
	      Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0:8080...
	      ^C
