Ubuntu :: Create Shell Script To Copy Contents Of A Shared Folder On A XP PC?
Apr 8, 2011I was wondering if there would be a way for me to copy the contents of a shared folder that's running on an XP system using shell script. Actually, there are two shared folders that I want to do this with. I want to be able to launch the script and automatically copy all the contents of each folder into two separate folders on my ubuntu desktop. For example;
Lets say that I have Shared Folders A1 and A2 on my networked XP system and I have Folders B1 and B2 on my Ubuntu desktop. I want the script to automatically copy the contents of A1 into B1 and likewise for A2 and B2. During the copying, I want the script set up such that any pre-existing files in the B1 & B2 folders will automatically get overwritten by the ones copied from A1 & A2.Is there any possibilities of me achieving this?

Jul 15, 2010I often have issues starting my window manager--xfce. My computer misbehaves in one of 3 ways, one of which is to fail to open X, but generate several screens of info. I want to paste that info to this site, but since I'm in the shell, not the terminal (please correct my vocabulary if it's wrong here), I don't know how to copy and paste the output, since right-clicking doesn't give me a menu. Even if I could copy I'm not sure the information would be accessible in X. Are there any other options?

1. Just to confirm, I need to place the above in a file with #!/bin/bash at the top and make it executable.
2. How do I know when the VMs have safely shut down so I can start the copy? I guess I can either a. wait a specified amount of time b. run some sort of if statement to confirm they are off.
3. How do I use Rsync or cp to copy to the backup folder?
4. How will I know the copy is complete so that I can start the VMs again?
Programming :: Shell Script To Copy Database Archivelogs Sequentially From One Directory To Another?
Jun 2, 2009want to write a shell script to copy database archivelog files sequential from one directory to another directory within a server. I am hereby enclosing the sample archivelog file name. Archive log filename : log_0000118432_1.arc (Here number 0000118432 will be sequentially incremented by 1 for next filename). Here the catch is all Archivelogs must be copied to destination directory. Previously copied files should not be copied.

Apr 20, 2010I've got quite a decent rsync script setup, however I'd like to invoke it whenever there's change to a file. My initial idea was to use find, however this has two major flaws - the first being my particular unix veriant cant understand -print0 which means this doesn't work, the second is that I'm not 100% sure how to put variables into quotation marks so ls can understand the target:
Code:
for i in `find /shares/ -mtime -1 -print`; do ls -ltr $i;done

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Copy A Read-Only File And Make The Copy Writable With A Single Cp Command?
Mar 1, 2011How to copy a Read-Only file in Linux and make the copy writable with a single cp command in Linux (Ubuntu 10.04)? The --no-preserve and --preserve seemed to be good candidates, except that they should "and" the mode flags, while what I am looking for is something that will "or" them (add +w mode).
More details: I have to import a repository from GIT to Perforce. I want that all Perforce depot files are Read-Only (that is how Perforce was designed), while all other files that were derived/copied from depot files are writable. Currently if a Makefile tries to copy a Read-Only file then the derived file will also be Read-only. This leads to build-errors when cp tries to overwrite Read-Only file second time. Of course the --force is a workaround here but then the derived file is also Read-Only. Also I do not want to mess with "chmod" after each "cp" command - I will do that only as the last resort.
