ftp logs?

[cleansedbb]

how would i get a script to ftp logs from one server to another.

i.e.

ftp site.com
user blah
pass blah2
cd /dialy/logs
mput access*
exit

I want to make this a script so I can have cron do this for me daily so I dont have to.

Thanks

Like this - you need the prompt command to stop the mput command asking you about each file it finds.

ftp -inv <<END_FTP
open site.com
user blah
pass blah2
cd /dialy/logs
prompt
mput access*
END_FTP

There are actually two FAQ's on the subject - but they're not very clear to be honest. Mike

up on the password

try:

ftp -inv <<END_FTP
open site.com
user blah blah2
cd /dialy/logs
prompt
mput access*
END_FTP
