recursive search and ftp
Could someone help me in recursive search and ftp'ing the files to remote server?
The host machine will have
/dir1/dira/list_of_files1
/dir1/dirb/list_of_files2
/dir1/dirc/list_of_files3
.
.
.
so., I need to search from dir1 recursively (only one level down) and find all the files that are 3 or 4 hours old and ftp all the files to the same directories in the remote host.
So, the remote host will also have same files under same directories.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
