GlacierWhy not have the data producing apps name
the data files using the creation time numbers
(there are quite a few methods for doing this).
Then revise the the function that now copies the
data to the three PCs so that it combines (as
appropriate) the time named files before copying.

Thanks for your time.

  Subject: filecopy/send to multiple PC's



  Hi,

  Can anyone tell me how to :

  I have an IP network and i want to send a txt
file (multiple lines) from one PC to 3 other PC's.
  problem ; the file i want to copy gets bigger
and bigger, because an application is often adding
to it.
  Once copied, the file is read by my program and
then deleted.


  --How i work now:

  I move the input file to another folder on the
same PC, copy it from there to the other PC's and
then delete the file, so no file is left on the
source PC, only on the 3 others. These 3  read the
file and throw it away (delete)
  every 2 seconds i check if a new file is
present, and ifso i repeat everything.

  --Problem : i loose data ,because of timing and
access to the file (read/write errors, file locks)
  I can't accept to lose data!

  is there a better way possible or another way??
(via udp or smta or .... ??)


  Thanks in advance for any hints
