Does anybody have experience with creating an application that update files
on the repository with the newest versioned which copied from the FTP?

This application runs as a service every time the computer is turned on.

I'm trying to  write a script (batch,perl) to copy files from the FTP into
the repository automatically.If the application find a difference against
the changed file
and the one from the repository, then it will be added automatically.
Otherwise it will skip through and go to the next file/directories.

So the step I actually need to perform is:
1. Copy files from FTP into the CVS client's local folder
2. Using CVS, update sandbox with the recent files from the server.
3. Compare if there're any differences found between the current file from
the repository against the one from the FTP.
4. If there're any changes/differences then perform an CVS command (add &
commit) to this file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much in advance.

Regards,
Ingrid
