Remove file conditionally between two server using sftp
Hi,
I am having 2 servers, Need to delete files from server1 if those files exist in server2 other wise no action using sftp .And the process is non-interactive way. I have got confused how to check the condition in sftp because there is non of the shell condition or loop command is executing.
In locally i can do the same problem but how to get result in sftp .
Code:
#!/bin/sh
source=~/abc/xy/
dest=~/def/yz/
for file in `ls -1 $dest`
do
if [ -e $source/$file ];then
rm -f $source/$file
fi
done

how to do this condition checking in sftp.

Thank you
posix

NAME

       sftp-server - SFTP server subsystem

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

DESCRIPTION

       sftp-server implements the server side of the SSH File Transfer Protocol as defined in the IETF draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer.

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0        Successful completion.

       >0       An error occurred.

FILES
