how to automate ftp dwnld
Posted: Wed Jul 07, 2004 2:11 pm
hi,
I am trying to automate my ftp dwnlds but Ncep changes the dates of the files everyday. I was wondering if someone knows how to automate this file. I am using a scheduler to dwnld the files but because the dates change everday, I have to manually change the date the day before. Any help will be appreciated.
shorthend version of dos batch file: (ftp site: ftp weather.noaa.gov)
bin
get us008_gf096_04070706_HxLBx
quit
The 0707 has to be changed ... since wildcards dont work and ncep changes it everyday
Any help will be useful thanks
