Data ftp - How to download files which created today?
Hello experts,

I have written following script to download files which created today.

Unfortunately, it's not working.

test.ksh:
Code:
#Defining variables
USR='xxx'
PASSWD='yyyy'
HT='test.test.com'
FILE='S*.pdf'
XFILE=$(echo find . -type f -mtime 0)
ZFILE=$(echo ls -tR|grep 'Jun  8')
DIRNAME='/output_files/2010'

#Connecting to ftp site and downloading the file
ftp -n -i -v $HT <<END_SCRIPT
quote USER $USR
quote PASS $PASSWD
cd $DIRNAME
pwd
mget $ZFILE  
bye
END_SCRIPT
ls -l

I also tried:
Code:
mget $XFILE

It transfers all files.

I like to download only those files which created today.

Any suggention/code would be grealy appreciated.

Thanks in advance!!
Dip

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

diffindex-download

DIFFINDEX-DOWNLOAD(1)													     DIFFINDEX-DOWNLOAD(1)

NAME

       diffindex-download - Download utility for Debian Contents files

SYNOPSIS

       diffindex-download [ options ] URL filename

DESCRIPTION

       diffindex-download  is  a command line tool for downloading Contents files. It uses APT's diff/Index format patches when available to avoid
       downloading the full file.  diffindex-download is used by apt-file.

OPTIONS

	  -n number
	      If more than number patches would be necessary, download the whole file. Specifying 0 to always download the whole file is possible.

	  -k  Don't verify the peer certificate when using https.

	  -c cacert
	      If cacert is a directory: Use cacert as CA certificate path. Otherwise use cacert as CA certificate bundle.  See	the  --capath  and
	      --cacert options in the curl(1) man page.

	  -i  Don't exit with errror if the URL does not exist. This is useful as some archives don't provide Contents files.

	  -q  Be quiet (opposite of -v). The default if stdout is not a terminal.

	  -v  Be verbose (opposite of -q). The default if stdout is a terminal.

	  -d  Print additional debug info.

	  -h  Display a short help screen.
