ftp script

[Guest_imported]

hi!

i'm on my way of integrating NT and AIX system aplication, i just want to have ftp script from AIX directly to NT (vice-versa), get/put file - rename it if a similar file/s exists with date/time attach after the file/s.

thank you.

Here is a interactive ftp script, you can modify it to run batch

#!/usr/bin/ksh
clear
#
# Gather ftp information
#
echo "*******************************************************"
echo "* Generic ftp, provide complete responses to prompts. *"
echo "*******************************************************"
echo "Enter User Id for network: \c"
read user
echo ""
echo "Enter the password for id xxxxxx: \c"
read pswd
echo ""
echo "Enter local transfer directory: \c"
read locdir
echo ""
echo "Enter host filename (ex: xxxx.zipped.myfile) : \c"
read hfile
echo ""
echo "Enter local filename (ex: myfile.zip) : \c"
read lfile
echo ""
echo "Enter transfer type (get or put) : \c"
read ttype
echo ""
echo "Enter transfer mode (binary or ascii) : \c"
read tmode
echo ""
#
# Build ftp command file
#
# n is network address
# p is port address for ftp
echo "open nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn pp" >ftpmisc
echo "$user $pswd" >>ftpmisc
echo "lcd $locdir" >>ftpmisc
echo "$tmode" >>ftpmisc
if [ $ttype = "put" ]
then
echo "put $lfile '${hfile}'" >>ftpmisc
