    Monitor a folder and upload new files via FTP

    In the past I've seen clients use Globalscape EFT which is massively over kill, Ideally I'd like something that monitors a folder and if there is any new files uploads them to an FTP server, can't be that difficult to do right?

    I know it can probably be scripted, but it's how would you get the script to always be running which I'd struggle with.

    I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

    If you can use rsync instead of ftp, check out lsyncd. Failing that inotify wait and ftp via a cron for example? Check out e.g. https://superuser.com/questions/3178...-files-one-way

    This is on Linux right??

      If it is on windows, you could schedule the script to run every few minutes and upload any files found there, doesn't need to run continuously I would have thought.

        NFS export and mount? That was no need to copy.

        With NFS4 and krb5p for end-to-end encryption and a Kerberos server - sorted.
