ftp the latest file from unix to windows
Hi,
I have a ftp script to ftp files from unix to windows. Now i need to pull the latest file from unix to windows. It is not working.
ftp -nvi $SERVER > ${FILE_DIR}/NavigationftpLog << EOD
user $USER $PWD
lcd $FILE_DIR
echo "the local directory is $FILE_DIR"
cd $Remote_PATH
echo "the remote library path is $Remote_PATH"
FILE_NAME=`ls -lt $Remote_PATH/output*|head -1|awk '{print $9}')
PUT $FILE_NAME
bye
EOD
This is not working. It is giving some errors.
Is there any method to include a piece of code in ftp script to get latest file.
Please advice!
