BleepingComputer.com: Chron Job Upload Questions

Hi, maybe you can help. I would like to generate a file and store it on an FTP server. Then, maybe, use a chron job to get the file and make an entry into my PHP/MySQL database.

Do you have any suggestions about how I would go about doing this? Such as testing for the available file, deleting the file once it is uploaded.
Thanks

Create a php script that checks for the file, use a sys call to scp or ftp the file, update the database, and then delete the file. If that is stating the obvious, then I am not sure exactly what it is you are asking.

Thanks for the help, just needed someone to point me in the right direction.

You should be able to find enough sample scripts to do each part that you can cobble them together to make a single script.
