ra8ul,

So a few things, now that I've looked a second time.

You don't need the /usr/bin/cd /usr line at all. You give the full paths everywhere else in your script.

Did you replace the ftp command with the suggestion from Chubbler_XL What output do you now get in the log file?


Perhaps you have typed your quotes correctly here, but they might be incorrect in your script. On the line to copy the file, you have a pair of back-quotes ` so it should run the data command. I've pasted your command onto my AIX server and it runs fine. Perhaps in your script you have used normal single quotes '


Try duplicating the line and displaying it before executing, i.e.:-
Code:
echo "**************************************************************" >> /usr/Mac.log
/usr/bin/date >> /usr/Mac.log

echo /usr/bin/cp -p /usr/stream.out /logs/AIX1.`/usr/bin/date +%H%M%d%m%Y` >> /usr/Mac.log 2>&1
/usr/bin/cp -p /usr/stream.out /logs/AIX1.`/usr/bin/date +%H%M%d%m%Y` >> /usr/Mac.log 2>&1

/usr/bin/ftp -n -i "ipaddress" >> /usr/Mac.log 2>&1 <<EOF
user ftpuser password
lcd /usr
cd Aix
prompt
mput AIX*
quit
EOF

mv /usr/AIX* /usr/archived/
echo "finish" >> /usr/Mac.log

I've spaced it out to make it a little easier to read. Can you try running with that and tell us what you see. I can see two things that seem a bit odd, but rather than leap in and tell you, it would be better for you to have a go yourself.

Good luck. Let us know how you get on. Do ask for help if you see messages that you don't understand.
