# Trace output function
trace ()
{
if [ $TRACE ]
then
DATE=`date +"%Y-%m-%d %X"`
echo "$DATE: $1" >> $TRACEFILE
fi
}
trace "Script $0 started"
# First find all alarm files to import at start
FILES="`find $ALARM_FILES_DIR -type f`"
# Loop forever and import files
while [ true ]
do
loop=`expr $loop + 1`
# cat the files to a text file
if [ "$FILES" != "" ]
then
FILES_SORTED="`ls -rt $FILES`"
trace "Alarm files to import:\n$FILES_SORTED"
for i in $FILES_SORTED
do
cat $i>export1.txt
username=***

"
/export/home/netcool/rohith/script.sh

done
LATEST="$i"
SENDHB=false

#
# If the latest file sent still exists then find newer files, otherwise find all files
if [ -f "$LATEST" ]
then
FILES="`find $ALARM_FILES_DIR -newer $LATEST -type f`"

sieveshell --help
DESCRIPTION
sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server. It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress.
The following commands are recognized:
list list scripts on server.
put <filename> upload script to server.
get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout
delete <name> delete script.
activate <name> activate script.
deactivate deactivate all scripts.

The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials.
-a authname, --authname=authname
The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user).
-r realm, --realm=realm
The realm to attempt authentication in.
-p password, --password=password
The password to use when authenticating to server. Note that this parameter can be seen in the process list. Use with caution!
-e script, --exec=script
Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
-f file, --execfile=file
Instead of working interactively, run commands from file file and exit when done.
