Accessing file server

Hi all, I am needed to create an app or script which can be used to access a file server (dont know which one yet) and then search for any new files which have been added since the last check. Any adds need to the be transfered to our in house file server. This needs to run continuously and perform the checks every x minutes.

My main q is, is java the best way forward for this kind of problem or should it be done in a different language?

Any comments would be greatly appreciated

Regards

My main qs to you are: are you experienced in java enough to write such application or do you prefer different language? What do you mean by "best way"?

I can't see any problems writing this application using C/Java/PHP/Shell script etc... If you have such problem - possible you will not write in appropriate time.

Hi, I decided to try both creating a bash script and also creating a java program. Both worked fine but I think the bash script is a lot easier to maintain. Thanks for response.
