Hi Tracy, I would like to see a sample of that batch file.
I signed up with www.webfaction.com because of all the good recommendations on this list. I asked about the command file sync with the web site and they recommended using the rsync utility. Google shows a Windows client. I plan to research that this weekend when I have more time. kam ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tracy Pearson" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 8:29 AM Subject: RE: [NF] I am looking (again) for web hosting for about 10gb Sytze de Boer wrote on 2010-05-18: > Alan, can you expand on your comment re command line FTP client > > I use IPSWITCH to update the files on my website, but I am interested > to explore a command line (.bat) process. > > S > Sytze, Both the FTP command line FTP and the PSFTP that comes with PuTTy have a parameter for a file that has a list of commands. I have used PSFTP (it uses an SSH connection to transfer files) with the batch to start transferring files home from different directories. I've always added a file at the end with a name I know the transfer has completed. Some 1 byte file named "completed.txt", or whatever fancied me at the time. When using a the command line, you may need to put in the password, or in a batch file, it will be plain text. Something to be aware of. Once you start it you can walk away and let it be. Both commands have syntax help via the -h parameter.
