I used something like this to move files from a customer upload location on our site DMZ to a secure location on our internal network. I a believe that this will allow you to do what you want. My memory may be a bit rusty... but I seem to recall having a perl program which parsed the log files and noted completed transfers, moved the files, and kept track of which files had been moved. We fired off the process every 10 minutes via cron, but a daemon would have worked just as well. The daemon ran inside the firewall and used scp to reach out to the DMZ ftp server and grab the log. It then processed the log and grabbed any new files, again via scp, keeping track locally of files which had been already recieved/moved.

Probably not exactly what you had in mind, but it worked for us at the time.

...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
