Hi madhan,

Thanks for the quick replay....

your option i feel i can only the size command that i m able to see it in ftp help option..when i tried like below..
>ftp
>size filename(that have been transfered)
>file size.

but can you explain me little bit more how do i compare both inside ftp itself..

i can check local machine file size like below
>!ls -lrt
>!ls -lrt | awk '{print $6}'
> localfilesize

?????

Thanks in advance..

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

NAME

       checksecurity - Run a collection of simple system checks

SYNOPSIS

       checksecurity

DESCRIPTION

       The checksecurity command runs a small collection of simple system checks which are designed to catch a few common security issues.  check-
       security is run by cron in a daily basis.

CONFIGURATION

       The checksecurity.conf file defines several configuration variables: MAILTO, CHECK_DISKFREE, CHECK_PASSWD and CHECK_SETUID LOGDIR.  Each is
       described below.

       The  checksecurity program works with a collection of plugins which are located in /usr/share/checksecurity and are configured individually
       by their own configuration file.

       CHECK_PASSWD If this is set to TRUE then the check-passwd script will be invoked.  This script is designed to report upon  system  accounts
       which  have  no passwords.  CHECK_DISKFREE If this is set to TRUE then the check-diskfree script will be invoked and will allow an alert to
       be sent if there is any mounted partition is running short on disk space.  CHECK_SETUID If this is set to TRUE then the check-setuid script
       will be invoked, this will compare the setuid binaries upon the system to those that existed previously and show the differences.

FILES

       /etc/checksecurity.conf
	      checksecurity configuration file
