passing parameter to ftp script from output of another ftp
Hi,
I have a ftp script which first gets all the file names and echo's the latest file.
I'm using another ftp command sets to get the file name given by first ftp. The problem is the parameter is not accepted by second ftp. The error message i'm getting is
> Rename Temp File calloc:ICMP port unreachable
here is my script
ftp -nvi $SERVER > ${FILE_DIR}/NavigationftpLog << EOD
user $USER $PWD
cd $PATH
ls its_out*
bye
EOD
#Obtain the latest filename inside the variable filename using sort command
filename=`awk '{if($NF ~ "its_out") {print $NF}}' ${FILE_DIR}/NavigationftpLog | sort -r | sed -ne '1p'`
echo "filename is $filename"
Latest_File=$filename
export Latest_File
ftp -nvi $SERVER > ${FILE_DIR}/Navigationftp2Log << EOD
user $USER $PWD
cd $PATH
lcd $FILE_DIR
ascii
get $Latest_File
bye
EOD
Please advice!

LEARN ABOUT LINUX
ftpd_selinux
ftpd_selinux(8) ftpd SELinux policy documentation ftpd_selinux(8)
NAME
ftpd_selinux - Security-Enhanced Linux policy for ftp daemons.
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux provides security for ftp daemons via flexible mandatory access control.
FILE_CONTEXTS
SELinux requires files to have a file type. File types may be specified with semanage and are restored with restorecon. Policy governs the
access that daemons have to files.
Allow ftp servers to read the /var/ftp directory by adding the public_content_t file type to the directory and by restoring the file type.
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/ftp(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/ftp
Allow ftp servers to read and write /var/tmp/incoming by adding the public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring the file
type. This also requires the allow_ftpd_anon_write boolean to be set.
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/var/ftp/incoming(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/ftp/incoming
BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is based on least privilege required and may also be customizable by setting a boolean with setsebool.
Allow ftp servers to read and write files with the public_content_rw_t file type.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_anon_write on
Allow ftp servers to read or write files in the user home directories.
setsebool -P ftp_home_dir on
Allow ftp servers to read or write all files on the system.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_full_access on
Allow ftp servers to use cifs for public file transfer services.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_cifs on
Allow ftp servers to use nfs for public file transfer services.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_nfs on
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
