Special Forums UNIX and Linux Applications Need to copy the latest file from Unix server to Shared folder Post 302562254 by Corona688 on Thursday 6th of October 2011 11:04:07 AM

Okay. And what's your UNIX server?

FTP is not a Windows file share. If it's FTP, you can use ftp and not mount anything.

That KSH script is full of FTP commands and won't work, because FTP is not KSH. You have to feed them into the ftp command, which is different on different versions of UNIX. What's your system?

"\\auviccf03\temp" is probably not a folder you can CD to, you'll need the actual folder not the network one. If you only have the network one then it's not FTP after all.

You've also got the mput before you change directory, which is probably not what you want.

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

ftp <<EOF
        lcd /home/manuownr/temp
        USER xxxx
        PASSWD xxxxx
        prompt n
        cd c:\path\to\file
        mput *.*
        quit
EOF

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and are ignored. Behavior Directives The ftp file supports the following behavior directives: FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default. If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is specified in /etc/default/ftp. ATTRIBUTES
