I hv two servers ( server A and server B , server B is windows ) and have a script to run to ftp files (may be more than one file) from server A to server B in every 15 minutes , I would like to make sure the files are transferred successfully to other server , can advise what is the best way to check the files are successfully transferred or not ? if not successful , then send me a notifiy mail , can anyone provide the script or give a suggestion for it ?

ps. the windows server do NOT have ssh rsh server installed .

Thx in advance.

Maybe have the Windows box generate a MD5SUM.txt from the new files, then have the GNU/Linux box download the MD5SUM.txt (via FTP) and verify that it matches the local one? It's just an idea - I haven't given this much thought. It would indeed be so much easier if you had an SSH daemon on the Windows box.
