Java How to FTP all newly created but the current open file?
An application running on HP-UX constantly generates new text log files ( I think using logpipe ). Any new file created requires to be ftp'ed to an offline server, however I want to make sure that the current file being written should not be transferred.
For examples consider the following files on HP-UX server that are transferred to an offline server for processing.

file1 - old already transferred at T1
file2 - old already transferred at T1
file3 - old already transferred at T1
file4 - new needs to be transferred at T2
file5 - new needs to be transferred at T2
file6 - new needs to be transferred at T2
file7 - new needs to be transferred at T2
file8 - new needs to be transferred at T2
file9 - file currently open by application for writing ( don't include this file for transfer at T2, this will be transferred at T3 when the file is close)

Also the script that ftp's the files run on the remote offline server. Is there a command that can be run from remote server that will help identify all the new files but prevent the current open file from getting transferred?

thanks

netread

netread(1)						      General Commands Manual							netread(1)

NAME

       netread - read data transported over network using netwrite

SYNOPSIS

       netread [udp] [-f host ] [-c] [-C algorithm ] [-o file ] [-s] [-b] [-h <n> ] [-H] <n> ] [-q] [-v] [-vv] [-V] [-vV]

       netread	is  part  of  the  netrw  package. It is a simple (but powerful) tool for transporting data over the internet, in conjunction with
       netwrite(1)

DESCRIPTION

       The main purpose of netrw is to simplify and speed up file transfers to hosts without an FTP server. It can also be used for uploading data
       to some other user. It is something like one-way netcat (nc) with some nice features concerning data transfers. Netrw can compute and check
       message digest (MD5, SHA-1, and some others) of all the data being transferred, it can also  print  information	on  progress  and  average
       speed. At the end it sums up the transfer.

OPTIONS

       udp    Changes the default TCP protocol can be changed to UDP.

       -f host
	      Works in the firewall mode; connection is initiated by netread.

       -c     This option is ignored. Transmission checksum is activated by default.

       -C algorithm
	      Uses the specified algorithm for checksum. This option also implies -c
	       . Supported algorithms (the first is default): sha1 md5 rmd160 none

       -o <file>
	      Writes data to file instead of stdout.

       -s     In case -o option is specified, open the file for synchronous I/O. Otherwise, this option has no effect.

       -b     print speed in b/s instead of B/s

       -h <n> Prints `#' after each n KiB transferred (def. 10485.76).

       -H <n> Prints `#' after each n MiB transferred (def. 10.24).

       -q     Be quiet.

       -v     Be verbose.

       -vv    Be very verbose.

       -V     Show version.

       -vV    Show verbose version.

RETURN VALUES

       0      no errors.

       1      some error occured.

       2      checksum validation failed.
