Hrm. I don't even know. It's not my server. Uploading something for a client. Didn't notice that the file extensions were wrong (windows not being case sensitive and all). I shall find out.26 + 6 = 1Comment

execute:
cd /path/to/folder; ls -al | grep JPG | awk '{print $9, $9}' >shit && vi shit
in vi hit escape, delete the top two lines (should be "." and "..", these can be deleted by hitting "d" twice, followed by shift-colon, at the colon prompt enter this sequence:
%s/^/mv /g
enter after that, simply change the second colum to have lower case jpg at the end. escape back to shell and save by hitting escape shift-colon and at the prompt enter:
wq!
at the prompt execute:
sh shit
I would explain how to do it for all files etc... but that's getting a bit tricky and wouldnt want to do so without seeing the file structure myself. be careful!

Could be done by a simple shellscript, or a php script, whatever you want ;)Comment

Why dont you just delete the files you uploaded. Then, on your pc, do a batch rename of the extension with Namewiz or any other renaming proggie. Then re-upload the shit.
Much safer than going in " shell" by telnet....
Or if not too many, use an FTP like shell manager:
F-Securee SSH file transfer. If interested, could post the link...I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !
But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....Comment

regular expressions own!
I've always wished that this was syntactically correct:
# mv *.WHATEVER *.whatever
hehe
