Automated FTP upload help needed for radio playlists

[Techbot]

I want to upload a file every hour on the hour, a "now playing" list
The file will always have the same name so that it overwrites the previous one.

Does anyone know an ftp client that possesses this ability, or some other methodology?
for windows xp

thanx

You could probably do it with a batch file and a scheduler (even the windows one)

batch file:

Code: Select all

ftp -s:Path\MyFilename.txt
exit

MyFilename.txt [you need to <fill these in> (and remove the brackets!)]

Code: Select all

open <mysite.com>
user <login> <password>
cd <remote directory>
lcd <local directory>
binary
put <filename>
disconnect
bye

and in the scheduler, just have it call MyFile.bat

it may need the odd tweak in the ftp file so that it works correctly for your ftp server, but that would do it!
