How to create a file in remote server from local server?
hi,
can anyone tell me how can i store the names of a file that are in remote server to a file and then get the file that contains the name in local server?
there is a remote server where 5 files are present , say
i want to write a script in my local server, which will connect to remote server and write all the filenames that are present in remote server (a.txt, b.txt, c.txt, d.txt, e.txt) in a temporary file say filenames.txt.
so filenames.txt will have the contents
after this i want to transfer this file (filenames.txt) to local server using any protocol?
please suggest ideas or scripts if it is possible.

dtsdate
dtsdate(1m)dtsdate(1m)NAME
dtsdate - Sets local clock from a remote dtsd server host
SYNOPSIS
dtsdate [-q] [-s] [-u] remote_host [nsecs]
ARGUMENTS
Queries the difference in time between the local host and the remote host, but does not change the local clock. The returned result (2 if
the time would have been reset, 1 if there was an error, and 0 otherwise) can be used by a script to determine what action to take. Causes
dtsdate to work silently, without showing the time. Shows the time in UTC, rather than in the current time zone. The name or the IP
address of a remote host that has a dtsd server. An integer giving the number of seconds by which the remote and local host times can dif-
fer, without the local host's clock being reset. If nsecs is 0, or if it is not specified, it is treated as if it were extremely large,
and no resetting occurs.
DESCRIPTION
The dtsdate command sets the local clock of a system to be the same as the host remote_host, running a dtsd server. The purpose of dtsdate
is to ensure that clock skew is minimized at initial cell configuration or at host instantiation, because it is difficult to start DCE and
its components if the skew is too great.
Clocks among all DCE components must be within five minutes of each other, to prevent failure of CDS and of security. Some DCE components
have even more stringent requirements. For instance, a DFS file server cannot start if its local host differs from other DFS hosts by more
than ten seconds.
The dtsdate command can be used for adjusting a clock backwards, before DCE is running on a host. Adjusting a clock backwards while DCE is
running can cause many difficulties, because security and file system software generally require system time to increase monotonically.
NOTES
The remote host must be running as a DTS server. This means that the dtsd on that system must have registered the DTS management inter-
face, because dtsdate uses the management call to get the current time from that host.
For dtsdate to be able to set the clock, it must run as a privileged user (root).
EXIT VALUE
If the -q argument is given, dtsdate returns 2 if the remote time and local time differ by more than nsecs, 1 if there was an error, and 0
otherwise.
If the -q argument is not given, dtsdate returns 1 if there was an error, and 0 otherwise.
EXAMPLES
With only the host argument:
dtsdate remotehost
dtsdate prints out the time on the remote host.
In this example:
dtsdate -s -q remotehost 10
dtsdate does not print out the remote host's time. If the times differ by more than 10 seconds, it returns the value of 1, otherwise 0.
In the next example:
dtsdate -s remotehost 10 dtsdate sets the clock if it differed from the remote clock by more than 10 seconds. It does this work
silently, because of the -s option.
The following example shows a shell script that uses the return value of dtsdate:
dtsdate -s -q remhost 10
result = $?
if [ $result -eq 0 ] ; then
echo "Time is within tolerence."
elif [ $result -eq 1 ] ; then
echo "Could not contact remote host." >&2
else # result = 2
if dtsdate remhost 10; then # it failed!
echo "Could not set the clock." >&2
fi
fi
