I ran across this script and am hoping what I'm encountering can be easily overcome because this will be invaluable in a server migration I'm working on. I'm able to connect to my ftp server and it logs in. I'm using
to initiate the script. I get reasonable output for everything in my main directory, then it begins on the sub directories. My first subdirectory is BeTheBoss and it has a subdirectory of images, and HardFeed seems to get through those fine. The 2nd subdirectory is where I run into trouble. I get the following output:
and the script aborts. My directory tree looks something like this:
From the looks of it it's using Binder as a subdirectory of BeTheBoss, but I'm not quite sure why. I'm going to try to dig through the script and solve it myself, but I don't know if I have quite enough shell scripting background to manage it.f
Thanks in advance if you beat me to the answer; if I find the fix I'll post back to this forum.

Hello,
I need to transfer files from Serve1 to Server2. Previously I was using scp command. Now I have to use sftp (due to audit issues). The problem with sftp is (atleast to my level of knowledge) we cannot transfer dirs (and files within that dir).
Is there a way to solve this? Looks like... (1 Reply)
Hi all,
I need to count the number of lines in all the files under a directory (several levels deep). I am feeling extremely dumb, but I don't know how to do that. Needless to say, I am not a shell script wiz... Any advice?

svscan
svscan(8) System Manager's Manual svscan(8)NAME
svscan - starts and monitors a collection of services
SYNOPSIS
svscan [ directory ]
DESCRIPTION
svscan starts one supervise(8) process for each subdirectory of the current directory, up to a limit of 1000 subdirectories. svscan skips
subdirectory names starting with dots. supervise(8) must be in svscan's path.
svscan optionally starts a pair of supervise(8) processes, one for a subdirectory s, one for s/log, with a pipe between them. It does this
if the name s is at most 255 bytes long and s/log exists. (In versions 0.70 and below, it does this if s is sticky.) svscan needs two free
descriptors for each pipe.
Every five seconds, svscan checks for subdirectories again. If it sees a new subdirectory, it starts a new supervise(8) process. If it sees
an old subdirectory where a supervise(8) process has exited, it restarts the supervise(8) process. In the log case it reuses the same pipe
so that no data is lost.
svscan is designed to run forever. If it has trouble creating a pipe or running supervise(8), it prints a message to stderr; it will try
again five seconds later.
If svscan is given a command-line argument directory, it switches to that directory when it starts.
