Hi,

it's quiet complex, we need more imput to help you.

Do you have an access to the shell of the Unix server ?

Do you copy the file using a rsync ? a Samba ? a NFS ? ...

there is a tool very used called md5sum : it gives you a value corresponding to the file. If you want to check if two files are equal, the md5sum must be the same.  but for this you need an access to the shell (with the fm SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE and a shell script that remote called the command (for example with a ssh/openssh))

maybe rsync & NFS have already a tool to compare if file are equal ...  the answer maybe depends of the Unix you use.

regards

Fred
