I have written a group of Perl scripts that collects data and
transfers it to a specific server via ftp. These scripts work great. I
also have a couple of scripts that parse the data on the server and populate
this data into a database. Once again, these scripts are working great.
What I would like however is to write a daemon that runs continuously on the
database server and populates the DB information as files arrive. I have
never even thought of writing a daemon before, and I don't even know where
to begin looking. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Network Programming with Perl, an excellent book, covers this very topic thoroughly. I highly recommend it.
