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" To "Eddie Chen" , 05/06/2009 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.

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.

I've never used return codes with ftp(1), but I have used them with fetch(1), which is also part of the base system. Have you tried fetch? If it doesn't meet your needs, can you explain why? -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ Visit our website at http://www.nyse.com **************************************************** Note: The information contained in this message and any attachment to it is privileged, confidential and protected from disclosure.
