GetDailyDAT

 

 

What:
This small tool to keep Mcafee Daily beta DAT on your server up-to-date.
It is monitor the webpage and when the webpage is changed, it download the files and execute a batch file..

 

Why:
I use the Mcafee Daily beta DAT's in my Mailsweeper and need a smart way to keep them up-to-date.



Why use this tool:
Use less bandwidth then when using Wget to bulk download files
Logging to Event log and session.log
Execute batch/scripts based on the webpage is change or not
Execute batch/scripts when there have not been a download for a number of hours
Run it many times a day (like every 10 min.)
Exit it self if another is all ready running (safety)



Here is how it work:

In every run:
It write status in the event log and to session.log

When webpage is change:
1. It download files from the webpage and save them in c:\getDailyDat\download
2. write the session.log and info in the event log
3. Execute c:\getDailyDat\scripts\Download.cmd

When webpage is NOT change:
1. write the session.log and info in the event log
2. Execute c:\getDailyDat\scripts\NoDownload.cmd

When the webpage not have change in x hours:
1. Execute c:\getDailyDat\scripts\alert1.cmd
