winscp ls output to a file
|
Charles George
Just getting started with sftp via winscp, this command is not working for me: ls >dir.txt
Should it be working or do I have to use a log command or some other way just to get a directory listing to go to a file? thanks. |

Hi Charles
I've been using a batch file which contains the following; and run it prior to running the WINSCP
rem goto drive
M:
rem change to directory needed
cd \hold dir
rem you can also put in an absolute path if you want the dir.txt to be located in another folder
dir > dir.txt
There are also ways to name the "dir.txt" to a YYYY-MM-DD-mm-ss_dir.txt
Let me know if you need more info.

I need the directory listing from the remote sftp server vs. the local machine.

from the winscp prompt. Here's one way I found to make it work:
Winscp.com /script=script.txt /log=wscplog.txt | find ".xml" > file_list.txt |
