Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting ftp file verification Post 41553 by gopat on Wednesday 8th of October 2003 08:11:45 AM

We currently retrieve the file via ftp to verify that the first ftp session was valid. Needless to say it multiplies network traffic and increases the complexity of the entire process.

Having said that, it would seem that ftp should be able to internally compute the checksum before and after the transfer, then ftp "get" the checksum from the remote server to verify the comparison? Just wishful thinking. I am not expecting this to happen and I don't have time to build it myself...

I find it surprising that this issue has not frustrated enough people to make an ftp verification process.

We don't have the SIZE command on our Solaris boxes. I will play with it on my home Linux box...
Thanks and best regards!

NAME
fdformat - low-level format a floppy disk SYNOPSIS
fdformat [options] device DESCRIPTION
fdformat does a low-level format on a floppy disk. device is usually one of the following (for floppy devices the major = 2, and the minor is shown for informational purposes only): /dev/fd0d360 (minor = 4) /dev/fd0h1200 (minor = 8) /dev/fd0D360 (minor = 12) /dev/fd0H360 (minor = 12) /dev/fd0D720 (minor = 16) /dev/fd0H720 (minor = 16) /dev/fd0h360 (minor = 20) /dev/fd0h720 (minor = 24) /dev/fd0H1440 (minor = 28) /dev/fd1d360 (minor = 5) /dev/fd1h1200 (minor = 9) /dev/fd1D360 (minor = 13) /dev/fd1H360 (minor = 13) /dev/fd1D720 (minor = 17) /dev/fd1H720 (minor = 17) /dev/fd1h360 (minor = 21) /dev/fd1h720 (minor = 25) /dev/fd1H1440 (minor = 29) The generic floppy devices, /dev/fd0 and /dev/fd1, will fail to work with fdformat when a non-standard format is being used, or if the for- mat has not been autodetected earlier. In this case, use setfdprm(8) to load the disk parameters. OPTIONS
-n, --no-verify Skip the verification that is normally performed after the formatting. -V, --version Output version information and exit. -h, --help Display help and exit. SEE ALSO
