return ftp status
Hello,
I still have problems when trying to figure out if the status of an ftp was successful. I ftp to different types (nt, vax, unix, etc...) of machines. I am trying to write a universal script that will ftp a file and then check to see if the ftp was successful. I have tried the following:
verify file sizes: VAX and UNIX boxes have different file sizes
grep ftp result for:
code 226; some boxes have different sayings
Do you have ideas?
Thanks,
Barbara
