FTP Automation Windows <> Unix <> Remote
Hi All,
I am a newbie to unix and scripting. I need to do the following job:
1. Create a batch file in windows that will call a script in a remote unix box.
2. The script now ftp files from the Remote windows machine and get them back to the local windows.
Actually, I have written the script in Perl using Net::Ftp and it is running fine among unix boxes. Now, I am supposed to make a batch file of the same so that it will run on scheduled time of a day and get the required files.
Could anybody please help me out.
Regards,
Ankur
PS: Is there any way, through which I can FTP automatically from Windows to windows, but the unix box is always there in between the transactions. I mean it is always there as an intermediate for the FTP job in my case, if done manually.

ncftpbatch
ncftpbatch(1) General Commands Manual ncftpbatch(1)
NAME
ncftpbatch - Individual batch FTP job processor
SYNOPSIS
ncftpbatch -d
ncftpbatch -l
ncftpbatch -D
OPTIONS
Command line flags:
-d Begin background processing of FTP jobs in the current user's $HOME/.ncftp/spool directory. This returns immediately, because a
daemon process is spawned and ran in the background.
-l Lists the contents of the user's job queue.
-D This is like -d, except that the process does not become a daemon.
DESCRIPTION
This program is responsible for processing background FTP requests. It is normally only run by ncftp and not manually by a human being,
however you can run it to manually process the FTP job queue.
The jobs are spool files written to a user's $HOME/.ncftp/spool directory and have a special format and file-naming convention (which con-
tains when the job is to be run). ncftp runs this program when it needs to, but if the ncftpbatch daemon dies unexpectedly the jobs that
are left in the queue will not be processed until another instance of ncftpbatch is run.
ncftpget and ncftpput can also be used to submit jobs for batch processing, using those utilities' -b command-line flag. If desired, you
can also manually create the spool files although this procedure is not documented here (see the manual page for ncftpspooler for more
information on how to do that).
DIAGNOSTICS
ncftpbatch writes to its own log file, the $HOME/.ncftp/spool/log file. This file should be examined to determine if any ncftpbatch pro-
cesses are actively working on jobs.
