How to FTP fiels according to generated date
Hi,
I need to get some files from a server via ftp. normaly I use following scrip, it is worrking fine.
cd dir_name
ftp -v -n "10.76.170.17" << cmd
user "rbi" "rbi"
cd recordreceive
prompt
mget b*.dat
bye
Now I need to modify it to get files accodding to the generated date. Can some body give me an idea how should modify my script to do this.
Example:
I have files like this in my server(Windows) as follows,
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 348734 Oct 09 2005 b00000505.dat
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 348419 Oct 10 2005 b00000506.dat
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 348765 Oct 11 2005 b00000507.dat
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 350113 Oct 12 2005 b00000508.dat
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 349624 Oct 12 2005 b00000509.dat
-rwxrwxrwx 1 owner group 349359 Oct 18 2005 b00000510.dat
How can I ftp(mget) files only generated on Oct 18 2005 ?

LEARN ABOUT LINUX
ftpd_selinux
ftpd_selinux(8) ftpd SELinux policy documentation ftpd_selinux(8)
NAME
ftpd_selinux - Security-Enhanced Linux policy for ftp daemons.
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux provides security for ftp daemons via flexible mandatory access control.
FILE_CONTEXTS
SELinux requires files to have a file type. File types may be specified with semanage and are restored with restorecon. Policy governs the
access that daemons have to files.
Allow ftp servers to read the /var/ftp directory by adding the public_content_t file type to the directory and by restoring the file type.
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/ftp(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/ftp
Allow ftp servers to read and write /var/tmp/incoming by adding the public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring the file
type. This also requires the allow_ftpd_anon_write boolean to be set.
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/var/ftp/incoming(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/ftp/incoming
BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is based on least privilege required and may also be customizable by setting a boolean with setsebool.
Allow ftp servers to read and write files with the public_content_rw_t file type.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_anon_write on
Allow ftp servers to read or write files in the user home directories.
setsebool -P ftp_home_dir on
Allow ftp servers to read or write all files on the system.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_full_access on
Allow ftp servers to use cifs for public file transfer services.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_cifs on
Allow ftp servers to use nfs for public file transfer services.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_nfs on
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
