How can I ftp multiple files?

I have two unix servers in which I need to ftp some files. The directory structure is almost same except a slight difference, like:

server a                 server b
miabc/v11_0/a/b/c/*.c    miabc/v75_0/a/b/c/
miabc/v11_0/xy/*.h       miabc/v11_0/xy/

There are many modules:

mfabc

The directory structure inside them is same in both the servers except the 11_0 and 75_0. And directory structure in side different modules is different

How can I FTP all the files in all modules into the corresponding module in second server b by any of scripting languages like awk, Perl, shell, ksh using FTP?

I'd say if you want to go with Perl, you have to use Net::FTP.

Once, I needed a script that diffs a directory/file structure on an FTP server with a corresponding directory/file structure on a local harddisk, which lead me to write this script. I don't know if it is efficient or elegant, but you might find one or another idea in it.

See you need to use correct path of directory where you want to send files. You can create small script with php . php provide good ftp functions.using php you can easily ftp your file. but before that, once check your ftp settings of IIS server or file zilla I have used following code for sending files on ftp this is in php :-

$conn_id = ftp_connect($FTP_HOST) or die("Couldn't connect to ".$FTP_HOST); 
    $login_result =ftp_login($conn_id, $FTP_USER, $FTP_PW);
    ftp_fput($conn_id, $from, $files, $mode)   // ths is the function to put files on ftp

This code is just for reference , go through php manual before using it.

I'd use a combination of Expect, lftp and a recursive function to walk the directory structure.

If the file system supports symlinking or hardlinking, I would use a simple wget to mirror the ftp server. in one of them when you're wgetting just hack the directory v11_0 to point to 75_0, wget won't know the difference.

server a:

1. go to /project/servera
2. wget the whole thing. (this should place them all in /project/servera/miabc/v11_0)

server b:

1. go to /project/serverb
2. create a directory /project/serverb/miabc/75_0, link it to /project/servera/v11_0:
   • ln -s /project/serverb/miabc/75_0 /project/servera/v11_0
3. wget serverb, this will be followed when wget tries to cwd into in 75_0 it will find itself in /project/servera/v11_0

Don't make the project harder than it needs to be: read the docs on wget, and ln. If wget doesn't follow symbolic links, file a bug report, and use a hard link if your FS supports it.

It sounds like you really want rsync instead. I'd try to avoid any programming in solving this problem.

I suggest you could login on any of the server first and go to the appropraite path miabc/v75_0/a/b/c/ . From here you need to do a sftp to the other server.

1. sftp user@servername
2. Go to the appropraiate path which files needs to be transferred.
3. write the command mget *
