Bug FTP a file on Hourly basis
Hi,

I have to upload a file test_201105281100.txt to a ftp location.

The files will be created on hourly basis like test_201105281100.txt, test_201105281200.txt & so on.

After a file is uploaded successfully, I need to rename the file as test_201105281100.success & if it is not uploaded successfully then rename it as test_201105281100.failure.

Also I need to delete the older files ( I may delete all the files or only .success files). After 12 AM on 30th May, I want to delete all the files that were created on 28th.

I want the script to run as a cron job.

Please help.

Note: I will be able to implement & test the solution that you suggest on Monday morning (more than 36 Hours from now).

Thanks,
Sunil
