Then try CFHTTP over port 80 to transfer files. Or a web service. If the
files need to be sent securely then your app can encrypt them before your
central server transmits them.

Thanks Guys,

CFFTP would be good but we are limited to port 80 only as this is the
standard BT Firewall implementation and would be a pain in the rear to
change knowing the NHS.

Subversion looks excellent but v.complex, may be over kill.

Will explore a little further and come back to you.

Run a cfschedule daily on the surgery servers, which cfftps into your box,
where you have all the files.  It compares the date changed against the
date
of the version of the file on their server.  If the version on the master
server is more recent, download it and replace the version on the surgery
server.  Possibly using a txt file on the master server that lists all the
changed files and their locations.

Dear All,

An interesting one for you to ponder.

We are currently trialling some of our new software in the NHS, in
particular doctors surgeries to remind patients of their appointment
either
via text message or test to speech voice call to their landline. We are
interfacing to their Patient Management System (PMS - EMIS LV or Vision
depending on their preference) to extract data on which to base the
contact
details and the appointment information.

Due to NHS restrictions we are not allowed to remotely connect in to the
surgery to retrieve data, as a result we have an application server
sitting
on site (thanks to BlueDragon) which connects to the PMS, gets the data
and
sends it out to us over a secure link.

The query is this, from time to time we need to be able to release patches
(to the CFM files or the ini files which interface to the PMS) on the
BlueDragon server, at present I am having to physically visit the surgery
and install the new files, no problem when there are only 2 or 3 but a
nightmare as it expands (which if the stats are anything to go by will not
be far away). What I want to do is have a script which runs regularly to
check if there are any files which need to be downloaded, if so, download
the files replacing the existing files and using these files in the next
scheduled task.

Would like to know if anyone has tried this before and has a recommended
way
of doing it or has any view points.

Will be travelling for an hour or so but will be back online about 5pm.

Regards,

Lee Fortnam
