Here is what I have so far Gene, This text in an "av_mcafee1.bat" file:
cd c:\progra~1\mcafee\updates del *.zip ftp -i -s:c:\av_mcafee2.txt c:\progra~1\winzip\wzunzip dat*.zip c:\progra~1\mcafee -n -o This text in an "av_mcafee2.txt" file: open ftp.nai.com anonymous <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cd /pub/antivirus/datfiles/4.x binary hash mget dat*.zip close quit This update script works fine but I do have some issues with it. - You need to pay for Winzip in order to not have it hang on the "accept eval" button when expanding the .zip file. - This script assumes you put the McAfee Command Line scanner in c:\program files\mcafee (but you can put it wherever you like.) - Use the windows scheduler to automate this as often as you like - This script would download the most current DAT file whenever this is scheduled, then expand and compare to the currently installed files. If they not newer, then it doesn't do the copy. If anyone can offer some help on how to compare the DAT files at the FTP directory level, I would prefer not to download the files unless they are newer. Any ideas?
