Sandra,
Run this script in the unix box where the file you want to transfer resides.
Make sure there is no '|' anywhere in the file.
If there is, then choose another character that for sure is not present in the file.
Code:
typeset -i mCnt=0
typeset -L500 mOutLine
mInpFile='your_input_file'
while [ ${mCnt} -lt 500 ]
do
 m500Chars=${m500Chars}'|'
 mCnt=${mCnt}+1
done
while read mLine
do
  mOut2=${mLine}${m500Chars}
  echo ${mOutLine} >> $$Temp
done < ${mInpFile}
sed 's/|/ /g' $$Temp > ${mInpFile}
rm -f $$Temp

A2ENSITE(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       A2ENSITE(8)

NAME
a2ensite, a2dissite - enable or disable an apache2 site / virtual host SYNOPSIS
a2ensite [site] a2dissite [site] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the a2ensite and a2dissite commands. a2ensite is a script that enables the specified site (which contains a <VirtualHost> block) within the apache2 configuration. It does this by creating symlinks within /etc/apache2/sites-enabled. Likewise, a2dissite disables a site by removing those symlinks. It is not an error to enable a site which is already enabled, or to disable one which is already disabled. The default site is handled specially: The resulting symlink will be called 000-default in order to be loaded first. EXAMPLES
a2dissite default Disables the default site. FILES
/etc/apache2/sites-available Directory with files giving information on available sites. /etc/apache2/sites-enabled Directory with links to the files in sites-available for enabled sites. SEE ALSO
apache2ctl(8). AUTHOR
This manual page was written by Stefan Fritsch <sf@debian.org> (based on the a2enmod manual page by Daniel Stone <daniel@sfarc.net>) for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution. 8 June 2007 A2ENSITE(8)
