I would like to copy only files that have changed in the last week from a backup directory on a windows server to a Unix server.
Givens:
Transferring from Windows to Unix
Cannot install anything extra on the Unix server, but can install at will on Windows
I have a directory of lots of big files up to 2 months old on a windows server
I have a Unix server with a big drive elsewhere I want to backup to
I can SSH/SCP only
I can authenticate via certificate to unix from windows, so I would like to script the file copies
Challenge:
I want to copy only the files that have changed in the last week because I don't have capacity on the destination drive to copy everything (I will schedule deletions of old files in unix as a separate job.)
Must be scriptable
Must not re-copy files that already exist.
Thanks for the help.
