Bug Multiple FTP.

Hi,

I'm trying to create a loop to ftp files from different servers.
The script i'm using to ftp a file from one server is as follows, and i'm scratching my head how to make this a loop that will do ftp from different servers.

FILE_NAME="ULOG.`date +"%m%d%y"`"
HOST='MY-IP'
USER='USER'
PASSWD='PASSWORD'
ftp -nv <<EOF
open $HOST
user $USER $PASSWD
cd /opt/tuxedo/logs/d2d_2
get $FILE_NAME
EOF
mv ULOG.`date +"%m%d%y"` ULOG.T$i.`date +"%m%d%y"`
done

[Modified the part of script which i actually got from our forum.]

Here i'm renaming the transferred file so as to differentiate it from the other log file.

My friend gave me a idea like create a file which contains all the other server's credentials and make the script to read that file and so that it makes ftp while the loop is running, but i could not able to catch up how to implement that, even he too Smilie

So if any of you guys have any idea on how to implement this loop would be a great help for me.

Thank you in advance.

With Best Regards,
Bhargav Kesavan.

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and are ignored. Behavior Directives The ftp file supports the following behavior directives: FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default. If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is specified in /etc/default/ftp. ATTRIBUTES
