Copy the newest file from a different server to your home server.
Hi all,
So I am on server 1, and I want to grab the newest file from a particular directory on server 2, and place this in a directory on server 1.
I am trying to use:
Code:
ls -tr | tail -1
This works, and gets me the newest file in a particular directory. Using svn `ls -tr | tail -1` etc I can grab the newest file and copy it somewhere else if the newest file is in the directory i'm currently in.
The problem is using ls -tr | tail -1 in an attempt on server 2, as ls seems to only look in the directory i'm currently in and not in another.
Is there a way I can use that command in a way like this example:
Code:
scp user@host:/directory $foo where foo=`ls -tr | tail -1`
The $foo here only looks in the directory i'm in, not user@host etc.
Hope this ramble makes sense!!
Alex

The ls -tr | tail -1 looks in host1, rather than the latest file in the directory ending /reports/...I need a way to grab the latest file from /reports/ and place it in host1.

NWREVOKE(8) nwrevoke NWREVOKE(8)NAME
nwrevoke - Revoke a Trustee Right from a directory
SYNOPSIS
nwrevoke [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -o object name ] [ -t type ] [ -r rights ] file/directory
DESCRIPTION
nwrevoke revokes the specified bindery object with the corresponding trustee rights from the directory.
nwrevoke looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more informa-
tion. Please note that the access permissions of $HOME/.nwclient MUST be 600 for security reasons.
OPTIONS -h
-h is used to print out a short help text.
-S server
server is the name of the server you want to use.
-U user
user is the user name to use for login.
-P password
password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwrevoke
prompts for a password.
-n
-n should be given if no password is required for the login.
-C
By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off
this conversion by -C.
-o object name
The name of the object to be added as trustee.
-t object type
The type of the object. Object type must be specified as a decimal value. Common values are 1 for user objects, 2 for group objects and
3 for print queues. Other values are allowed, but are usually used for specialized applications. If object type is not specified, object
name is taken as NDS name.
file/directory
You must specify the file/directory from which to remove the object as trustee. If you specified -S, it must be fully qualified NetWare
notation for DOS namespace. Otherwise it must be file or directory mounted to your system using ncpfs.
Example:
nwrevoke -S NWSERVER -o linus -t 1 'src:bsd_src'
With this example, user linus is removed as trustee from the bsd_src directory on the src volume on server NWSERVER.
nwrevoke -o linus -t 1 /home/vana/ncpfs/nwserver/src/bsd_src
With this example, user linus is removed as trustee from the bsd_src directory.
AUTHORS
nwrevoke was written by Volker Lendecke with the corresponding NetWare utility in mind. See the Changes file of ncpfs for other contribu-
tors.
