Does it allow throttling? Thanks for teaching me about rdist! -- --- inum: 883510009027723 sip: jungleboo...@sip2sip.info xmpp: jungle-boo...@jit.si

Yes.
I used to have a script create batch files in /tmp,
each with the full name of the incremental dump file to sftp.
But I've found rdist. (OpenBSD uses ssh by default.)
Look at rdist(1) EXAMPLES section,
http://www.benedikt-stockebrand.de/rdist-intro_en.html
e.g: ~postmaster/distfile:
HOSTS = ( box1 box2 box3 box )
bin:
~/bin - ${HOSTS}
spamd-trap-addresses:
/etc/mail/spamd.trap-addresses - ${HOSTS}
special spamdba add -l -s ;
mx-backup-recipients:
/etc/postfix/recipients.list.box0 - box5
special logger -p mail.notice rdist of ${REMFILE} ;
...
..
e.g: postmaster's crontab:
RDIST_LOGGING='-l stdout=info,change,notice,nerror,ferror,warning'
32 2 * * Mon-Sat nice -n 18 rdist ${RDIST_LOGGING} -o
verify bin spamd-trap-addresses
5 */8 * * Mon-Sat nice -n 15
postfix-generate-recipients-list nice -n 15 rdist ${RDIST_LOGGING}
mx-backup-recipients
...
..
Cool.

sftp script put help
Hello All, Running Openssh's sftp version 3 on both client and server but the OS is not openBSD. I want to upload a file automatically with a cron job so I'm using the -b flag. % cat fetch2.sh #!/bin/sh cd /home/jungle put file_*.csv aaa_completed I can't specify the file name completely because it changes monthly (based on the month year), but using batch file results in the file not being uploaded. When I connect directly, I can use the * just fine: % sftp jungle@host Connected to host. sftp cd home/jungle sftp put file_*.csv Uploading file_foo2015-05-15.csv to /usr/home/jungle/file_foo2015-05-15.csv file_foo2015-05-15.csv Any ideas how I can achieve the latter with the former? Thanks, Jungle -- --- inum: 883510009027723 sip: jungleboo...@sip2sip.info xmpp: jungle-boo...@jit.si

Thanks for trying this out and giving me input. ...or maybe rsync if the file is large. -Barry Best, j
