cksum solution
Thanks for the code example.
We have a batch process ("file watcher") that will indicate when the file has finished transfering.

I think the solution would be to build on your concept. Perhaps the remote server should have a file with the output of the cksum command for each file to be sent. This file would be ftp'd with the other files and a similar cksum process would compare these results. The process would fail if there is a difference.

The nice thing about this method is that the filenames could be different and it would still work (if files were timestamped). It would simply check if all the checksum values are the same and fail if they are not.

Thanks for everyone's contribution.

partx

PARTX(8)						      System Manager's Manual							  PARTX(8)

NAME

       partx - telling the kernel about presence and numbering of on-disk partitions.

SYNOPSIS

       partx [-a|-d|-l] [--type TYPE] [--nr M-N] [partition] disk

DESCRIPTION

       Given  a  block	device	(  disk  ) and a partition table type , try to parse the partition table, and list the contents. Optionally add or
       remove partitions.

       This is not an fdisk - adding and removing partitions is not a change of the disk, but just telling the kernel about presence and numbering
       of on-disk partitions.

OPTIONS

       -a     add specified partitions or read disk and add all partitions

       -d     delete specified or all partitions

       -l     list partitions. Note that the all numbers are in 512-byte sectors.

       --type TYPE
	      Specify the partition type -- dos, bsd, solaris, unixware or gpt.

       --nr M-N
	      Specify the range of partitions (e.g --nr 2-4).

SEE ALSO

       addpart(8), delpart(8), fdisk(8), parted(8), partprobe(8)

AVAILABILITY

       The partx command is part of the util-linux-ng package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux-ng/.
