Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users How to FTP all newly created but the current open file? Post 82244 by adurga on Tuesday 30th of August 2005 04:09:06 AM

I doubt whether UNIX has built in commands for these requriements. I see two queries here.

1) 'Already FTPed files' not be FTPed again :- Two solutions 1) Record the timings of when ever FTP command runs. Then always pick the files later than last run FTP command. 2) If remote host has permission to move/rename the files then as soon as they got FTPed move/rename them to some other format other than FTP files format. But in real scenarios it is very unlikely that remote host would be having permissions to move/rename files.

2) Not to pick the current growing file:- Assuming only one file is open for writing at any time, why dont you just leave the latest file (ignore file 'ls -lrt | tail -1')?

SYNOPSIS

       plpftp [-h] [-V] [-p [host:]port] [long-options] [ FTP-command [parameters]]

DESCRIPTION

       plpftp provides an FTP style interface for the psion. It requires the ncpd to be running already to provide access to the serial port.

       plpftp has online help. To see the available commands start the program and enter "help".

       -V, --version
	      Display the version and exit

       -p, --port=[host:]port
	      Specify  the  host and port to connect to (e.g. The port where ncpd is listening on) - by default the host is 127.0.0.1 and the port
	      is looked up in /etc/services. If it is not found there, a builtin value of 7501 is used.

       FTP-command parameters
	      Allows you to specify an plpftp command on the command line. If specified, plpftp enters non interactive mode and  terminates  after
