I have a file at remote server. I have to select only current day's files that are dropped on ftp server. The files do not have date or timestamp on them.
so I plan to get the file listing from remote server to the local server. Based on file listing date I can find out when the files are dropped. (by comparing with the current day's date)
I have a ftp script and I am using these commands to get the file listing date to the local directory.
now I find lcd on my local directory,
And when I do "vi lcd" (or "more lcd") I find this,
Can somone please tell me, after I get the file to local directory, how do I find out if the file is current day file using a korn shell script.
Thanks
