Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Copy down remote files and rename them to include the server name with full path Post 302763337 by asnatlas on Wednesday 30th of January 2013 04:47:25 PM

I think I know what I did... I split this into two scripts, one to create the new.list then another to scp the files down and rename them. When I was testing out the first one to ssh I was getting "sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo" so added the -t argument to ssh. Looks like for some reason I also added the -t to my scp cmd in my other script for some reason Smilie

Thank you very much for your time Chubler_XL. I just did a test and everything is working Smilie

current working script is:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
#set -x

OLDIFS=$IFS
IFS=":"
while read server filepath
do
  scp "$server:$filepath" ./$server${filepath//\//_}
done < new.list
IFS=$OLDIFS

I am sorry to be a PITA...

I am so close...

I wanted to add "sudo chmod 755" as I was running into permissions issues with trying to scp some files.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
set -x

OLDIFS=$IFS
IFS=":"
while read server filepath
do
  ssh -t $server  "sudo chmod 755 $filepath"
  [ -n "$filepath" ] && scp "$server:$filepath" ./FILES/$server${filepath//\//_}
done < new.list
IFS=$OLDIFS

I am getting the following error:
Quote:
+ ssh -t server.domain.net 'sudo chmod 755 /path/path/filename'
Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo
I also tried with ssh -tt and get

smd-client(1)						 Sync Mail Dir (smd) documentation					     smd-client(1)

NAME
smd-client - receives diffs and performs actions SYNOPSIS
smd-client [-v|--verbose] [-d|--dry-run] [-t|--translator] [-l|--local-sync] [--rename-only] [--override-db dbf] endpoint mailboxes DESCRIPTION
smd-client needs to know a name (endpoint) for the client (that must not be used by others) and a list of mailboxes (directories). smd-client waits on stdin a mail dir diff. It attempts to execute these actions, eventually asking data printing commands on stdout and expecting the data on stdin. OPTIONS
-t --translator Specify a program to translate remote mailbox names to local ones. Note that the translator 'cat' (the identity program) is opti- mized away -l --local-sync Local synchronization, no changes is made to the db-file since smd-server takes care of it --rename-only Do not synchronize the mailboxes but generate the script '~/smd-rename.sh' to uniform the files names in the mailbox --override-db dbf Use dbf as the db-file -v --verbose Increase program verbosity (printed on stderr) -d --dry-run Do not perform any action for real NOTES
smd-client is a low level utility. You should use higher level tools like smd-pull(1) and smd-push(1) SEE ALSO
