Actualy my problem is :
From windows machine they are ftp ing the text file.
UNIX server should have to read that file.
We are using shell script to read that file. but it is failing to read due to not able to find EOF ( file type problem)
My understanding is that While ftp ing from windows machine, they are ftping in binary mode instead of ascii mode.
so i have to write one more script to check EOF file is present or not in that ftp ed file.
