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

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.

mc-tool
MC-TOOL(1) Utilities MC-TOOL(1)NAME
mc-tool - manipulate Mission Control accounts from the command line
SYNOPSIS
mc-tool list
mc-tool add PROFILE DISPLAY-NAME [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]
mc-tool add MANAGER/PROTOCOL [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]
mc-tool update ACCOUNT [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]
mc-tool display ACCOUNT DISPLAY-NAME
mc-tool nick ACCOUNT NICKNAME
mc-tool icon ACCOUNT ICON
mc-tool show ACCOUNT
mc-tool get ACCOUNT PARAMETER [PARAMETER...]
mc-tool auto-presence ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE]
mc-tool request ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE]
mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT on|off
mc-tool remove ACCOUNT
DESCRIPTION
mc-tool's usage depends on its first argument (the "command")
SPECIFYING ACCOUNTS
Where an account name is needed, it may be given as a full object path (e.g. /org/freedesktop/Telepathy/Account/gabble/jabber/example), or
as the unique account-specific suffix (e.g. gabble/jabber/example).
SPECIFYING PARAMETER SETTINGS
Many commands take arguments that represent Telepathy connection manager parameters (see the Telepathy Specification for details of these).
Each argument has the following form:
TYPE:NAME=VALUE
where TYPE is either int, uint, bool, or string (other parameter types exist, but are currently unsupported by mc-tool), NAME is the name
of the connection manager parameter (e.g. account or password), and VALUE is the parameter's value (with integers in decimal, and booleans
as 0 or 1).
The update command also accepts arguments of the form clear:NAME which delete the named parameter from the account configuration.
LIST
mc-tool list lists the available accounts.
ADD
mc-tool add adds an account. The connection manager and protocol can either be given as the name of a Mission Control profile, (e.g.
gtalk), or as a slash-separated connection manager name and protocol (e.g. gabble/jabber).
DISPLAY
mc-tool display ACCOUNT DISPLAY-NAME sets the DisplayName property of ACCOUNT to DISPLAY-NAME.
NICK
mc-tool nick ACCOUNT NICKNAME sets the Nickname property of ACCOUNT to NICKNAME.
ICON
mc-tool icon ACCOUNT ICON sets the Icon property of ACCOUNT to ICON.
SHOW
mc-tool show ACCOUNT shows information about ACCOUNT.
GET
mc-tool get ACCOUNT PARAMETER [PARAMETER...] shows the values of the given parameters of ACCOUNT.
ENABLE
mc-tool enable ACCOUNT sets the Enabled property of ACCOUNT to True.
DISABLE
mc-tool disable ACCOUNT sets the Enabled property of ACCOUNT to False.
AUTO-PRESENCE
mc-tool auto-presence ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE] sets the AutomaticPresence property of ACCOUNT to STATUS with optional message MESSAGE.
REQUEST
mc-tool request ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE] sets the RequestedPresence property of ACCOUNT to STATUS with optional message MESSAGE; this is
how you tell an account to connect or go offline, for example.
AUTO-CONNECT
mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT on sets the ConnectAutomatically property of ACCOUNT to True. mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT off sets it to
False.
