How to read last to lines of a file present at remote server.

What have you tried so far? We want to see what you have been trying before giving you a nudge in the right direction. Who knows, you may have been on to something.

How you read it will depend on what type of access you have to the remote server.

my $fileName = "test.txt";
open(FH_TEST, "<$fileName");
my @filecontents = <FH_TEST>;
## navingate through the array for last to first as follows to get only last two lines.
for (my $i = $#filecontents; $i <= $#filecontents -2; $i--)
{
    print "Line $i Content is : ", $filecontents[$i], "\n";
}
close(FH_TEST);

mohanprasadgutta,

I don't know if you were aware of this, but this is a learning forum. We don't just provide code upon request. If this was, we would be a scripting/coding service.

If you read the post, we have asked the OP for their code that they have tried thus far so that we may assist them and thus, they can learn from it.

In the future, please do not just go throwing out code without first seeing what the OP has tried, to see if they were on the right track and maybe need a nudge.

Regards,

Jeff

can't read files on a remote server like that anyway.
