Cron FTP Script

by  abovebrd  Posted    (Edited  )
Here is a simple ftp script

#dataftp
#ftp script
#
ftp -inv <<!
open 192.168.10.1
user username password
bin
put filename
quit

I execute this script from another script that gets executed by cron. That script is listed below

date > /var/adm/ftpout

./dataftp >> /var/adm/ftpout 2>&1
pid2=$!

echo `$pid2` >> /var/adm/ftpout

exit 0
