Yazan Yacoub — Mon, 26 May 2008 10:34:58 GMT

Hello,

I appreciate if someone can help me on this:

I need to create FTP job that move files from specific path on HP-UX box to another path on HP-UX system, I need to move only files with the following format only:
XDS****DMF***
And
XDSDMF********

Above job will run on daily bases.

Thanks,
Yazan

Perhaps you mean cron job, not ftp.

If files are text files , containing XDSDMF** ... just write a simple script for finding such files and move it to specific location.

regards,
ivan

If this is a shell Pattern Matching Notation, you'll need:
XDS????DMF???
(Otherwise only one "*" is needed.)
