Re: [foxboro] ftp script

Hey,

The following script will transfer one file via FTP from a command line on
an AW51.
You can easily modify this script for your needs.

Good luck!

Subject: [foxboro] ftp script


Foxboro Users,

Before I build one from scratch myself, anyone know where I can "borrow" an
existing script to automatically ftp files from an AW51 to a plant network
server.  I am hoping to find an existing core script I can modify to fit our
specific application (i.e., IP addresses, paths, etc.) and schedule it with
cron.

What we need is ...

-      An AW resident script to ftp numerous files (RBatch Reports) from an
AW directory (LBUG = AW51XX) to a server on the Plant Network (ServerName\I
Drive:\* ).
-      I will schedule the script (via cron) to run at 1:00 AM on the 5th of
every month.
-      The script will copy all files from the previous month, so it has to
look at date and time.
-      Just FYI, there will probably be about 600 files each month.
-      Since there are (2) types of file names on the AW (XYZ and ABC RBatch
Report files), and (2) different directories on the Plant Network side
(I:\XYZ\* and I:\ABC\*), I may need (2) separate scripts (I will copy and
edit for the 2nd one); or a way to separate them in a single script before
the ftp (whatever is easiest).  The naming convention for the files is -
       -     MM0001 through MM000X; where MM = the month (01, 02, 03, etc.).
000X = number of the sequential report.

I could not find anything in the Cassandra Project e-mail archive.  I would
greatly appreciate any help in getting started.
