Hi EveryBody,
I have to transfer a large amount of files to another server.
All the files start with the year 2003.
i tried connecting to the remote box and transfer the file using put command

put 200307??.* -------->But this is not working(may be taking long time.

IS there any other easy way to transfer the files to remote server.

20030728.2070501.IBILL.zip.gz
20030728.2070601.ICLL.zip.gz
20030728.2070701.ICLL.zip.gz

Hi arunprasadlv,
make a tar-file first and then transfer only this file to the server.

tar cvf all2003.tar 200307??.* # create the file

tar xvf all2003.tar # extract the file on the server

Code:

#!/bin/sh
ftp -i target.host.com <<!EOF
binary
mput 200307*
bye
!EOF

tar cvf - 200307* | rsh <rmthost> -l <rmtlogin> "(cd <rmtpath>; tar xvf -)"

ps. must have .rhosts on <rmthost> for user <rmtuser> with your host entry "myhost myuser"
