HOw to delete files from remote server?

Hi,
I want to delete files from a directory on remote server.
I use the following command to delete on current server:
find $srcdir -mtime +90 -name "COR*.txt" -exec rm -f {} \;
Now, how can I delete files from remote server ?
Thanks!

Some possible options:
1. There exists SSH implementation for Windows.
2. You can make a workaround. You can setup share for specific/wanted directory.
Then you can mount it on Linux machine and execute command localy and delete files "localy" in mounted directory.
3. You can setup FTP server on Windows machine and do that remotely via FTP commands.

  • How to delete files from application server posted in last 30 days

    I have some files in application server posted through ABAP program with the below format
    \.\.\.abcd_20110209_111209.csv   (with  date and time). I need to delete those files which was posted in last 30 days through another program. Could you plaese help me to achieve the requirement?

    There are many ways you can delete/archive files in application servers.
    1. Depending on the application server, usually administrators setup delete/archive programs. For e.g. if the application server is a UNIX, then the unix admin will write a script to delete/move older files. - this is the most common approach I've seen.
    If you have to achieve this through ABAP then,
    1. You can get the script from the server admin and then use that script to create an external system command through SM69/49 and use the function module SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE to execute it.
    2. You can also look at FM EPS_DELETE_FILE and see if it fits the bill for you.
    There are many other possibilities too and each one has its own pros/cons. So you'll have to choose the right one for your requirement.

  • How to read file from remote machine

    Hello,
    Hi, i would like to know how to read text file from remote machine using java source code, any code ?
    Thanks very much;
    Best regards
    Kim

    On the server, perform the following steps:
    Parse the request and determine the file to serve
    Open a FileInputStream to the appropriate file
    Obtain a reference to the Servlet OutputStream
    Pipe the bytes from the file to the output stream
    Flush and close the streamYou might want to call HttpServletResponse.setContentType("application/octet") to indicate to the browser that a file download will be occurring. Do so before getting the reference to the Servlet's OutputStream.

    Is there any function module exists???
    thanks in advance
    Saurabh

    Hi you can use this function module to move a file from application server to another folder on application server.
    call function 'WS_FILE_COPY'
               exporting
                    destination = m_destination
                    source      = m_source
               importing
                    return      = return.
    Plus u can use this function module to delete the file from that folder from which u want to replace it.
          call function 'WS_FILE_DELETE'
               exporting
                    file   = m_source
               importing
                    return = return.
    The above FM can help u copy a file from one folder to another and delete the file from that folder.
