This is getting more and more complicated and finicky. Would it be possible to set up rsync instead of ftp? It can do everything you want just with a few commandline switches.

Yes it would be great . I dont know how rsync works with third party FTP server . Can you send me a script .

But if you can do those 2 steps with perl i appreciate it.

It doesn't... It isn't FTP, it's rsync. That's why I asked.

If you don't control the FTP server then probably not.

Is there any end to the requirements you want? You've been asking for more and more for some days now.

Since my FTP doesn't have mtime, I can't build anything I can test.

I need only 2 things

1. how to backup a file wheneven i run the script
2. how can i do diff with the old file and new file
in the existing script
