Answer» Hi all,
I need to check if a file is exist on a remote SERVER or not , I am using the following code :
Code: [Select]if [ -n `ssh $hostname 'ls /usr/local/file 2>/dev/null'` ]; then
echo file exists
fi/code]
The code is working fine, but now I have files NAME like
text1_progress
text2_progress
So I need to check that if file name having *_progress is exist or not, How to check this?
THANKS in AdvanceHave you tried 'ls /usr/local/\*_progress 2>/dev/null'? I'm not sure at what point the command interpreter expands the wildcard.
You could also potentially use rsync to perform this test, with the --dry-run flag.
