Need a windows script to check all unix db boxes are pinging ?

Question

Hi ,
I need a windows script to check all unix remote db boxes are pinging ?
I need to show the output in an html file.
Can anyone suggest ideas ?

Answer 1

I have a script that "kind of" works. The only problem I've seen is that it gets confused when filenames contain characters that are fine in Macland but not good in Unixland. Forward slashes are a good example of this.
In this case I have a folder in my home named "copytest" Inside copytest are two folders:
Source (containing the images to be added)
Dest (My existing library of images)
It also assumes that the folder of images to be added contains no sub-folders. Hope this helps.
tell application "Finder"
set theSource to folder "source" of folder "copytest" of home
set imagesToBeCopied to name of every file of theSource
end tell
repeat with theFile in imagesToBeCopied
try
if (do shell script "find -r ~/copytest/dest -name " & quoted form of (theFile as string)) is not equal to "" then
--The file exists. Don't copy it
else
--the file doesn't already exist. Copy it.
end if
on error
return "Failed while trying to check for existence of a file"
end try
end repeat
