did anyone tell you you rock. Because you do.
It looks like this solves all the problems i encountered before.
I can go on to error testing now, but i'm quite confident it will work.

thanks...

this would be perfect if not for the move i also need to execute. Could i get 2 commands after the | ?
because it is very important that the mv is executed directly after the scp. (also the exit...

Hi there,

I'm encountering problems on an AIX system when using following in my script.


find . -name *.edi -type f -exec sh -c 'scp {} $user@$server:$path || exit 5; mv {} $sent || exit...

ok guys,

This works great, but i cant implement it from my boss however :( :wall:
he thinks it is too risky just killing a process like that every time it fails :s (read as, he thinks a local remove of file...

The purpose would be to execute the rm and write the exit code of the rm to a file on the local machine. (sorry fairly new to scripting)

Yes i know that, and i know i could be able to write a list directly after the transfer as follows

sftp> put $file
sftp> echo $file >> somecheckfile

but my boss shot the idea for following reason.
how will you know when the echo file > smth has worked or not :s

he's kind of a nitpicker...

This is what i first came up with, but there seems to be a problem when doing this.
Since it is a large amount of files the script makes a lot of different sftp connections. After an upgrade of the...

!rm file is what you do when trying to remove a local file while in an sftp shell. (hope i'm saying this right)

That would indeed work, except the only problem i have is that the server we send this to is a 3rth party server to which only sftp connection from our side is allowed.
On top of that the directory...

Hello all,

I am currently writing a script to send files to a server over sftp. When the sftp put command succeeds it wil preform a local move from within the sftp shell to another folder (this is...
