Transferring files to Windows

[cadbilbao]

Hi!

I'm transferring some folders from HPUX to Windows2000 via FTP, and I want to check if transfer has been done OK (every subfolders and files transferred).

How could I perform this?

On your PC, when you run ftp, set logging on. The log file will then record all files transferred and their size in bytes. Compare this to you unix filenames and sizes - they should match. One other tip, always set transfer to binary.

Thanks, Trunix.

I'm using Cute FTP on Windows, and I would like to compare the log file you mention with my folder's filenames, but I do not know to do it one by one, because they are thousands.

Wich is the appearance of that log file???

I am using Reflection FTP. I click on :-

tools
start logging

then it asks for a log file name.

When you have ftp'd then click on :-

tools
stop logging

Then open the log file.

One way to check, may be to ftp the log file back to your unix box and write a simple script to extract files names and filesizes to compare the log file with your original list.
