Begin background processing of FTP jobs in the current |
| |
|
35 |
user's $HOME/.ncftp/spool directory. This returns |
| |
|
36 |
immediately, because a daemon process is spawned and ran in |
| |
|
37 |
the background. |

__-D__ |

This is like __-d__, except that the process does not |
| |
|
50 |
become a daemon. |

!!DESCRIPTION |
| |
|
52 |
|
| |
|
53 |
|
| |
|
54 |
This program is responsible for processing background FTP |
| |
|
55 |
requests. It is normally only run by ''ncftp'' and not |
| |
|
56 |
manually by a human being, however you can run it to |
| |
|
57 |
manually process the FTP job queue. |
| |
|
58 |
|
| |
|
59 |
|
| |
|
60 |
The jobs are spool files written to a user's |
| |
|
61 |
$HOME/.ncftp/spool directory and have a special format and |
| |
|
62 |
file-naming convention (which contains when the job is to be |
| |
|
63 |
run). ''ncftp'' runs this program when it needs to, but |
| |
|
64 |
if the ''ncftpbatch'' daemon dies unexpectedly the jobs |
| |
|
65 |
that are left in the queue will not be processed until |
| |
|
66 |
another instance of ''ncftpbatch'' is run. |
| |
|
67 |
|
| |
|
68 |
|
| |
|
69 |
''ncftpget'' and ''ncftpput'' can also be used to |
| |
|
70 |
submit jobs for batch processing, using those utilities' |
| |
|
71 |
__-b__ command-line flag. If desired, you can also |
| |
|
72 |
manually create the spool files although this procedure is |
| |
|
73 |
not documented here (see the manual page for |
| |
|
74 |
''ncftpspooler'' for more information on how to do |
| |
|
75 |
that). |
| |

!!DIAGNOSTICS |

|

|
| |
|
79 |
''ncftpbatch'' writes to its own log file, the |
| |
|
80 |
$HOME/.ncftp/spool/log file. This file should be examined to |
| |
|
81 |
determine if any ''ncftpbatch'' processes are actively |
| |
|
82 |
working on jobs. |
