Re: ReturnCode Checking for FTP
Lowell, On my AIX and Linux system we don't have fetch installed. I Googled fetch, can't found the download URL for fetch. It seems fetch(1) will get file(s)... We mostly push the file(s) to the clients. Thanks.

RE: ReturnCode Checking for FTP
Gary, Yes I am look a retrunCode from put/get/reanme. We run and transmit very large amount of data and jobs thru out the evening. These jobs runs under Linux and AIX. - This was not an issue on the mainframe, the mainframe ftp client support return code. Currently, we have two solutions, write script(s) to look for 226 and 250 and/or PERL ftp that reads ftp command. Reading the ftp commands seems to be better, because it will exit(rc) if any of put or rename failed. Thanks. Gary Gatten ggat...@waddell. com To Eddie Chen ec...@nyx.com, 05/06/2009 freebsd-questions@freebsd.org 11:08 AM cc Subject RE: ReturnCode Checking for FTP Can I assume you want return codes to know if the file was transferred correctly? Several years ago I was involved in architecting a middleware app for file/data exchange. For ftp delivery (and others) we'd check the file size locally, put the file, then check the file size on the remote side. Not fool-proof, such as CRC or Hash of somekind, but pretty good. Use bin mode for everything. Also, maybe as part of the file record itself you can embed a hash and have the client check this when processing the file on their end. Unfortunately when using ftp you never know what the ftp server supports, so unless you can dictate supported ftp servers, you can't get too fancy.

RE: ReturnCode Checking for FTP
Hi Gary and Lowell, I just download and complied the ncftp and run some ftp, it looks nice. Going to check it out more later on... I like the diagnostics exit return value on the ncftpput/get. Anyway, I have aready modify the tnftp(lukemftp) and started testing some of the batch jobs.
