I have a simple backup script like:
cd /home
for i in *.* ; do echo 'now processing' $i tar cfz $i.tar.gz /home/$i echo 'finished processing' $i done
----- at completion, I'd like to login to ftp and mput *.gz; how do I script ftp user/pass/commands ?
A simple redirection of input should do I think. Eg
ftp < ftp_script
where ftp_script is a plain text file which contains the ftp commands you need to process to get it done - one per line.
