Basically i have an FTP server that connects to other ftp servers and sends and downloads files every few hours or so. There are 12 different accounts that all have 2 scripts each, one to send and one to receive. Below is an example send script for one account. There all the same, just the top variables are changed...
I have put these all in cron to run at certain times but after activating all of them and checking it in the morning it was hanging on connection (ssh)... i managed to get in but was greeted with a number of CRON memory error messages... it seems if the jobs are running into some sort of error they are running again exactly 1min later... how can i stop this???
Any help is appreciated
Code:
#!/bin/sh
HOST=***
USER="***"
PASS="***"
ACCOUNT=***
REMOTE_DIRECTORY=***
lftp -u ${USER},${PASS} sftp://${HOST} <<EOF
lcd /home/ftp/$ACCOUNT/ftptransfer/outgoing
cd $REMOTE_DIRECTORY
mput *

The problem that I am facing is - the scpt1.sh can be executed manually. But, it is not executing through CRON. Not sure what's the issue. Any hints?. Thanks.... (5 Replies)

I need to run a script (from cron) that runs a second script.
What worries me is that second script, when run from bash, upon finishing doesn't return to bash unless I press the 'Enter' key.
I presume that's because last command in that script ends with &

Hello everyone,
I have an AIX 6.1 machine and i experienced a problem with my cron scripts. It appears that somebody renamed a cron script so crontab could not execute it.
Is there a way to put some security on cron scripts so nobody else except root can rename or delete a cron script? Or they... (6 Replies)

ftpconfig
ftpconfig(1M) System Administration Commands ftpconfig(1M)NAME
ftpconfig - set up anonymous FTP
SYNOPSIS
ftpconfig [ftpdir]
ftpconfig -d ftpdir
DESCRIPTION
The ftpconfig script is executed by the super user to set up anonymous FTP. Anonymous FTP allows users to remotely log on to the FTP server
by specifying the user name ftp or anonymous and the user's email address as password. The anonymous users are logged on to the FTP
Server and given access to a restricted file area with its own file system root. See chroot(2). The FTP area has its own minimal system
files.
This command will copy and set up all the components needed to operate an anonymous FTP server, including creating the ftp user account,
creating device nodes, copying /usr/lib files, and copying timezone data. The passwd and group files set up have been stripped down to
prevent malicious users from finding login names on the server. The anonymous file area will be placed under ftpdir. If the ftp user
account already exists, then the current FTP area is used, and the system files in it are updated. All other files are left untouched. This
command should be run to update the anonymous FTP area's configuration whenever a system patch is installed, or the system is upgraded.
OPTIONS -d Create a new or update an existing ftpdir without creating or updating the ftp user account. Use this option when creating guest
FTP user accounts.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
ftpdir The absolute pathname of the directory under which the anonymous FTP area is set up.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion
1 Improper usage of the command
2 Command failed
