First thing which comes to mind is setting up sftp - in batch mode - with ssh keys in order not to need authentification Second thing which comes to mind is using rsync. -- Claus Dragon <clauskick@mpsahotmail.com> =(UDIC)= d++ e++ T-- K1!2!3!456!7!S a27 "Coffee is a mocker.

This command will keep the directory structure on server B exactly like what is on server A. No daemons on B need to be started up other than sshd. If you still like find, you could use find /home/dir -type f -exec scp {} serverB: \; but you'll have to watch out for oddball characters in file names and new directories on A will not be created on B.

| Re: Scripting help - copying modified files to another server Thanks a lot. Is it good idea to rsync /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, so server B and A can have the same users with password. I tried to cp "passwd" file to server B under /tmp, but seems "scp" didn't carry over the "group", it show "other" instead of "sys" # l /tmp/passwd -r--r--r-- 1 root other 25502 Jul 18 15:55 /tmp/passwd "Douglas O'Neal" <oneal@dbi.udel.edu> wrote in message news:f7qcvb$1ih$1@scrotar.nss.udel.edu... > steeles wrote: >> Thanks. >> >> rsync is an open source tool similar to rcp >> >> Orignially I want to use "Find", but how can I copy those files into same >> direcotry in sever B? >> >> >> "CK" <claus@ultima-dragons.org> wrote in message >> news:hrnv93lp64uji9k6ib0mh9fj15jnjqsln1@4ax.com... >>> Words to the wise, "steeles" <steeles@gmail.com> wrote: >>> >>>> Need some help from scripting Guru. >>>> >>>> server A and B has the same directory structure, so I need to copy all >>>> new >>>> modified files to correstponding directory in Sever B. >>>> >>>> I can use "find" command to locate those file and direcotries into a >>>> file, >>>> but how can I copy over. >>>> >>>> I need some assisstance for this. >>> First thing which comes to mind is setting up sftp >>> >>> - in batch mode >>> - with ssh keys in order not to need authentification >>> >>> Second thing which comes to mind is using rsync. >>> -- >>> Claus Dragon <clauskick@mpsahotmail.com> >>> =(UDIC)= >>> d++ e++ T-- >>> K1!2!3!456!7!S a27 >>> "Coffee is a mocker.

I suppose all the files ended up in a flat dir on serverB:home_dir ? What about cd home_dir find . | cpio -dump /net/serverB/home_dir where serverB:home_dir has to be NFS exported Regards fw |
