.netrc script

Raymond Ford — Fri, 07 May 2004 11:41:04 GMT

Would like to write a script that will sftp a file from one server to another. Wondered if anyone had ideas on how to accomplish this transfer.

sftp doesn't use .netrc files....

Only way to automate would be to use something like expect:

Hi,

You can use public/private keys for that.
