Is there any way to know in system A whether the file is half way done if the file is being ftped from system A to system B .
I need to verify the count wc -l {file name } and this command shows a 0 while the file is coming in.

I do check for the existence of file . Checking for size 0 is not a solution

Thanks
Ashok

Hi,

Why is checking for size 0 not a solution?

You may also want to use "fuser" to see if the file is still in use by FTP (or any other program).

Best regards.

Frank

Actually, I get a file sometime with 0 bytes also . In that case the check is not going to work

Exactly what option in fuser

when i am doing fuser {filename} it is just displaying
as

filename:

while my file is opened using other session
