Uploaded imported songs using automator?

[Hydraulix]

Every time I import a song on my mac I want it to upload to my linux ftp server. I looked around automator but didn't really find what I was looking for. How can I do this?

Okay, first of all you need to download the Upload to FTP Automator action. Then create a workflow like the one in this screenshot:

I had to add the "Copy files" action as the "Upload to FTP" action needs a list of filenames passed to it and the "Find songs" action doesn't output that.

Obviously you need to change the settings to suit your set-up.

Or you could use a program like rsync to synchronise your local music folder with the folder on your ftp server.
