The WS_FTP Pro is installed in a WIN 2003 Server. We tried as described at http://www.snailbook.com/faq/scripting-sftp.auto.html. But, it does not work for us.<br><br>When we tried sftp -v userid@remoteserver,<br><br>Connecting to remoteserver...<br>OpenSSH_4.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005<br>debug1: Reading configuration data /usr/local/etc/ssh_config<br>debug1: Connecting to remoteserver [remoteserver_IP] port 22.<br>debug1: Connection established.<br>debug1: identity file /home/careconn/.ssh/id_rsa type -1<br>debug1: identity file /home/careconn/.ssh/id_dsa type -1<br>debug1: ssh_exchange_identification: 220 vhqstdb1 X2 WS_FTP Server 3.1.3 (1177576476)<br><br>The questions are,<br>1. Can we use .netrc file with sftp? <br>2. Do we need to include certificate info in the script?<br>3. Is there a sample automated UNIX script for sftp?<br><br>Any help much appreciated.<br><br>Thank you in advance,<br>Chandi<br>Tue, 23 Aug 2005 11:52:06 GMTchandi
