Blade FTP command issue in shell script
Hi All

I am using following code in my shell script to send the file to a mainframe server.

Code:
 ftp -in $FTP_IP_SEND <<END_OF_FTP >$LOG_DIR/ProviderExportFTP.log
 quote user $FTP_USER_SEND
 quote pass $FTP_PASS_SEND
 ascii 
 send ./ProviderExport.txt 'PROJ.PDRCACTS.FD87050.EXPORT' (REPLACE
 bye

From one of my server, this code is not correctly. I am able to ftp files, But receiver is getting only a part of it. My actual file size is 1 mb and recevier is getting only 40 Kb.

Intersting thing is that the same code is working from another server. Both of my machine is having HP Unix insatalled in it. The recever is Maniframe system.

I am new to Unix and finding it hard locate the issue. Any help regarding this issue is greatly appriciated.



Thanks in advance
Renjith

This could be a networking problem rather than an FTP problem, perhaps your MTU is set too large for the recipient to handle.

Thank for the quick replay.

I am able to send files from a different machine to same server with out any issue. So can you please help me to where to check the difference between them?

There is certainly no related bug in your script - nothing for this forum.
"HP-UX" or "IP Networking" are certainly better.
For a start, try the following HP-UX commands for comparing and debugging:
Code:
swlist
netstat -i
ifconfig lan0
traceroute ...
