[Need HELP] Find aging file and auto FTP
Dear Experts,

I have script to find aging file like this:

find /ArchiveINTF/INTF name "*" -type f -mtime +365 {} \; >> agingfile.txt

This script will find all files over 365 days.

But, I have problem, how to auto FTP all files?

Thanks
Edy

Try this:

Code:
ftp -i -n host.domain <<EOF
quote USER <username>
quote PASS <password>
cd <dir>
ls
mput $(cat agingfile.txt | tr '\n' ' ')
ls
close
EOF

Hi Mirni,

Thank you for your response.

How to define dynamic directory?
It's too many directory under /ArchiveINTF/INTF

And output on aging.txt is full path. example /ArchiveINTF/INTF/AOP/100/INBOUND/WMS/SOI/PROCESSED/WMS_SAP_SOI_000000626803_1510

You might want to use lftp(1). Much easier. Make a small shell script that does it all:
Code:
#!/bin/bash

makeFTPscript() {
    cat <<EOF
open ftp://<user>:'<pass>'@<host>
cd <dir>
ls
mput $(cat $1 | tr '\n' ' ')
ls
EOF
}

#generate the script
makeFTPscript agingfile.txt >ftp.cmd

#run the ftp script:
lftp -f ftp.cmd

If the connection is refused due to non-verifiable certificate, just add a line
Code:
set ssl:verify-certificate 0

to your ~/.lftprc (create it if doesn't exist).
