Periodically check FTP folder for new files? (5 posts)

    Is there an automator task that will check an FTP folder (and subfolders) for new files say twice a day? I need a way to get notification if clients upload files to our FTP server without trying to remember to check or expecting them to let me know they've uploaded a file.
    Thanks

    I've written a few AppleScripts that use Fetch to watch server folders for new files. What sort of notification would you want -- perhaps an email?

    Thanks,

    Yes, an email would be perfect!

    Hi,

    Could you send an email to bugs@fetchsoftworks.com ? I will send you the script to try.

    Thanks,

    Why would this show up on google if the solution was sent by e-mail?
