Non Interactive sftp

Like the option "-i" in ftp for non interactive file transfer.

ftp -i hostname

what is the similar option in sftp .

Hi:

Setup public keys. Then, if you want a pure shell script, use 'scp' or 'sftp'. In the later case, you can find an example I offered here:

Also have a look at the '-b' switch of sftp for batch mode.
