Programming :: Good FTP Scripting Language

Jul 28, 2009

We have to (re)write a bunch of scripts to download files from remote ftp servers, where we won't know the names beforehand; move the files to an archive folder on the FTP server; copy the files to the correct servers on our LAN; and log the file information in Oracle.Our current scripts are for a windows product called ScriptFTP that provides a nice little language. It does everything except the logging, but we're wanting to get rid of Windows.

I have recently been given the job of maintaining the code, and I'm looking for a good language for simple, robust ftp scripts that will work on Linux. We have some customers with remarkably unreliable FTP servers. If necessary, I can write another program to handle the logging to Oracle. I'm usually a C++ developer, so a similar syntax is a bonus. I also want to be able to hand this over to an entry-level programmer later.

So far, I'm intrigued by PHP, but I've hardly had a chance to look at it for any scripting. I like the idea of being able to loop through the files individually and even be able to skip over anything that looks like it's currently being written (either based on the file name or date/time). I've thought about writing something in C++ that would take a simple config file instead of a full blown script. However, I don't want the maintenance, unless someone writes a quality FTP library that is inexpensive (hopefully free) for commercial use.

General :: System Administration Scripting - Write Very Basic BASH Shell Scripts

Jan 10, 2011

I'd like to know some good resources, links, e-books to learn basic Linux system administration scripting. I know how to write very basic BASH shell scripts so I'm still at beginner level. There are so many docs out there that I'd like to narrow down people's opinion's on the best easy to understand resources that are available. Eventually I'd like to learn basic PERL as well.

General :: What Scripting / Language To Focus On?

Apr 26, 2010

So for example, I uses VBscript to script out my tasks in Windows, and more recently PowerShell.From a Linux Admin's point of view, what scripting would he/she need to know? Would being proficient in Bash be sufficient or should you supplement that with something else? (if so, what is that something?)

Server :: Easy To Learn Server-side Language?

Oct 18, 2010

Coming from a C and C++ background, with a little SQL at university, I was wanting to move to web development and implement an idea of mine for evaluating movies. In a nutshell, the idea is this: produce a score for each movie by only taking into account opinions of people of your age and psychological profile, as derived from a questionaire. Or a score derived from the opinions they have given about other movies, the more match there is with your opinions about those movies, the higher the coefficient for their opinion in the production of the movie score.What's the easiest way to implement this, what language is the easiest to learn?

Programming :: Your Opinions Of The Best Combination Of Programming Languages To Learn

Jun 10, 2010

I want to know your opinions on the best combination of programming languages to learn if you want to learn more than one. An explanation of your choices would be real nice. I've included a multiple-choice poll that has the langauges from the Member's Choice Awards 2009 list of best programming languages on it. Please vote for your choice of languages also. It should be interesting to see what the numbers are like when people can vote this way, and choose more than one language.I'm voting for Python/C just as an "overall" opinion. It's what I'm going to learn. I've done quite a bit of reading and experimenting and this is what I've personally settled on. My opinion is just a personal "overall" opinion. You can also pick just a single language, and vote for just a single language if you think it's better to learn just one.

General :: Which Programming Languages Do Need To Learn For Career?

May 4, 2011

I am just starting to learn Linux and am interested in a career in Linux. Actually I wanna go for RHCE, which is the first step for Sys Admin..right?? Basically I do NOT want to go into programming/developing as I don't feel it's my cup of tea (and also may be it sort of boggles me). Still, from what I gather I am having confusions regarding whether I should learn any programming language for a career in Linux.

Here I am avoiding programming..and now I get to hear that Linux career uses programming..That's sort of frustrating...My friend told me I need to "master" C. Do I need to learn some programming language?? If yes, then to how much extent?

Programming :: Languages To Learn For Dynamic Website Design?

Nov 23, 2010

So a friend and I are new-ish to linux (I am reasonably comfortable with basic /etc text editing, command admin). We are, however, completely new to programming and (x)html. We have a few (what we think are) interesting ideas for dynamic websites.Ideally we would like to develop our own course of study to get to the point where we have a basic understanding of programming so that our adventures in the programming of a dynamic website would be possible. Much of what we need learn to do is the following: use daily updated public-domain data from several other sites, manipulate that data algorithmically, which would then yield updating output on our site. Here is what I would like to do:

1. learn the basics of programming with a language that would teach good code habits and fundamental understanding.
2. become comfortable with (x)html
3. learn another language for the extension of (x)html into a dynamic data-heavy website.

Question could you please suggest a way about going about 1>2>3?Ideally the language of (1) would be something that would not be "wasted" just on web design etc. As a language, C really appeals to me. However, if learning this wouldn't lend itself to being helpful in learning another language for webdesign maybe I shouldn't use it(?).If (1) weren't to be C, what language would be funadmental enough to teach good coding but also be helpful in learning (3)

Programming :: Scripting/programming Challenge Mac/PC Interoperability?

Jul 27, 2011

some basic programming/scripting/etc. ability but I am not able to do what I now need to do. I would like to have a link on a website that when a user clicked on that link, one script or another would execute based on what operating system that person is using. To wit: If a Mac User clicked on it, it would run a terminal script and would set up a served printer for him; if a PC user clicked on it, it would run a script to set up the served printer on his machine, you get the drift. The printer is being served on a Windows Server 2003 machine, the users are NOT domain users, the print server is also hosting the files, scripts, webpage.

Programming :: Shell Script And Administration Of A System - Change Or Set The IP Address And Subnet Mask

Aug 26, 2010

tasks of an administrative level that we can use Shell Script to automate them. It's a kind of homework for me to figure out how to automate those tasks. Using PHP and Shell Script design and develop a Web Interface to change or set the IP Address and Subnet Mask of the UNIX / Linux System. The related services must be restarted automatically for the new IP Address and Subnet Mask to take effect. No user name and password should be asked for when using that Web Interface. How would you do it?
