Looking for a file for current month and do FTP that to remote server

[cts123]

Hi,

Just wanted to check with you guys, if you have any script which does the check of a particular file in one location for the current month and do a FTP the same to a remote server.

Location of the file is = /int/PRD/400/fi_o/data/
File name = list_p0001709nvwr_CC_yyyymmdd.txt

Thanks a lot.

Regards,
Sam

If you can trust the timestap of the file then
maby something like this could be a startingpoint...

find /int/PRD/400/fi_o/data/ -type f -a -mtime -30 | 
  while read file
  do
    echo $file #print name of file
    # ftp it to where you want
  done

Presuming it's based on today's date, you can set the filename using something like:

[tt]FILENAME=list_p0001709nvwr_CC_$(date +%Y%m%d).txt[/tt]

Hi geirendre,

Thanks for your reply. But If I execute that command it is returning all files which are 30 days old.

I need file "list_p0001709nvwr_CC_yyyymmdd.txt" to select for the particular month and select that for FTP.

Say for example for Nov, the file would be like :-

list_p0001709nvwr_CC_20071108.txt

During Dec it may be :-

list_p0001709nvwr_CC_20071203.txt

So when I will execute the script for the month Nov or Dec or Jan, this will pickup the file of that particular month and then will do ftp. Hope you understood what I need.

And the job which creates the file is running only once in month.

Thanks.
Sam

In that case:

[tt]FILENAME=$(ls list_p0001709nvwr_CC_$(date +%Y%m)??.txt)[/tt]
