Error Batch file to Get New Files Only through FTP
Hi there

I want to create a batch file which Get (mget) the newly added Files only from specific directory on UNIX server to specific folder on windows server using FTP, and this batch file will be scheduled on the windows server to run daily to load the new files (load the newly added files from the unix directory to the windows folder).
Urgent help plz

I have reached the following

1- The following is the batch file it contains the following:

Code:
ftp -n -s:ftp_import.txt 10.32.253.73
exit

2- The following is the text file which has the name "ftp_import.txt". it contains the following:

user <unix username>
<unix password>
lcd D:\(The path of source, where to get the files from unix server)
cd /home/The path of destination, where to put the files to windows server)
prompt
mget *.CSV
bye


Everything is running well

But still I want to modify this batch to get only the newly added CSV files, not all the files (*.CSV). this is now my only problem.

qenable

qenable(8B)								PBS							       qenable(8B)

NAME

       qenable - enable input to a pbs destination

SYNOPSIS

       qenable destination ...

DESCRIPTION

       The qenable command directs that a destination should accept batch jobs.

       The  qenable command sends a Manage request to the batch server specified by destination.  If the command is accepted, the destination will
       accept Queue Job requests which specified the queue.

       In order to execute qenable, the user must have PBS Operation or Manager privilege.

OPERANDS

       The qenable command accepts one or more destination operands.  The operands are one of three forms:
	    queue
	    @server
	    queue@server
       If queue is specified, the request is to enable that queue at the default server.  If the @server form is given, the request is	to  enable
       all  the  queues at that server.  If a full destination identifier, queue@server, is given, the request is to enable the named queue at the
       named server.

STANDARD ERROR

       The qenable command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for each error occurrence.

EXIT STATUS

       Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the qenable command, the exit status will be a value of zero.

       If the qenable command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value greater than zero.
