Shell Programming and Scripting

I'm having few doubts with below questions not able figure out the reason:

Working with Solaris machine - script will run in ksh shell.

I think you need to provide a bit more detail first:-It's all just a bit too vague to have a sensible stab at it yet.

Actually I'm trying to re post the file to the remote machine if it fails due some sort of network troubles so I'm capturing a log file for this and using '226' presence in it, if not there re-post the file.

the script tried to re-post the file it threw an overwrite error ( so what it means is we do have a HALF/INCOMPLETE file in remote machine ) right, but when I manually connect to the same remote machine and do the exact same command of mput <filename> present inside the script, it worked fine

the core part of script will be

Code:

ftp -n -v -i remote_machine << EOF > log_file 2>&1
user username pswd
binary
mput file_name
bye
EOF

After the above code having a if loop to check for '226' presence in logfile, if not present then do the same above code again ( this is where I get "Overwrite" error from script but manual try worked )

does has to do something with which shell i'm running it, the machine is set to bash and script is running through ksh. Solaris 5.10 is the version of OS.

I see we do have a command reget for getting a file again from remote machine to local machine like its going to presume from where it stopped. In the same way is there any command to do the opposite of it ie. reput

:::: FTP LOGS ::::

Code:

550 myfile_catch_me.txt: Cannot overwrite existing file.
451 Requested action aborted. Permission denied.

Any help/suggestion will be appreciated !!

I would also like to see the permissions on the files in the directory (as well as the permissions the directory itself) for the files you're trying to replace with mput.
