Re: [cobalt-users] FTP Admin Question

[Jeff Bilicki <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This only works if you _trust_ all the binaries that are uploaded.
Drop the following shell script into /etc/cron.daily and chmod 755 it.

#!/bin/bash
# quick and dirty hack

src=/home/sites/home/ftp/incoming
dst=/home/sites/home/ftp/pub

# This really isn't the best way to do this
cnt=`ls -1R $src | wc -l`

# makes sure if file names already exists it doesn't get blasted
/bin/mv --backup=numbered $src/* $dst

echo "Moved around $cnt files into pub" | mail admin
