Hi all,

This is a request.
I need a scripts to run in a command prompt. My requirement is as follows:

  1. I would like to pass a domain name into a script like "perl script.pl argument1" and have it scan "/home/sites/argument1/users", then scan "/home/spool/mail" , then copy all matches to "/home/sites/home/web/move" , and then chmod each file in that directory to 644.
  2. This script needs to work with the results of previous script . I need it to scan the directory "mail/argument1" for each username(the users in that directory will match the files you copied in script1 (previous script)), then do "get http://192.168.0.1/move/username", and then rename the file downloaded to "inbox" . This should be done for each user found in "mail/argument1" . Here is a quick run through:
Before move: 
mail/argument1/xya/inbox
mail/argument1/xyb/inbox
mail/argument1/xyc/inbox

[download]
During middle of move: 
mail/argument1/xya/inbox/xya
mail/argument1/xyb/inbox/xyb
mail/argument1/xyc/inbox/xyc

[download]
After the renaming of the files: 
mail/argument1/xya/inbox
mail/argument1/xyb/inbox
mail/argument1/xyc/inbox

[download]
Could you pls write a code for 1 and 2.
Waiting for help from all experts

Regards,
Kumar.
