Replace FTP with SFTP
Hi All,

I am in the process of replacing SFTP instead of FTP to make data more secure. In one of my FTP script I have Quote Site command. I would like to know, what is the option to replace this in SFTP

Code:
ftp -n -v <<! | tee -a $LOG | grep "Transfer complete" >/dev/null
   open $remote_address
   user ${remote_login_id} ${remote_password}
   quote site $quote_site_cmd
   cd $remote_dir
   binary
   put $local_file $remote_file
   quit

Please help me to solve this.

Thanks in advance
Vishnu

CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH(3)				     curl_easy_getinfo options					CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH(3)

NAME

       CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH - get entry path in FTP server

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_FTP_ENTRY_PATH, char **path);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a	pointer  to  a	char pointer to receive a pointer to a string holding the path of the entry path. That is the initial path libcurl
       ended up in when logging on to the remote FTP server. This stores a NULL as pointer if something is wrong.

       The path pointer will be NULL or pointing to private memory you MUST NOT free - it gets freed when you  call  curl_easy_cleanup(3)  on  the
       corresponding CURL handle.

PROTOCOLS

       FTP(S) and SFTP

EXAMPLE

       TODO

AVAILABILITY

       Added in 7.15.4. Works for SFTP since 7.21.4

RETURN VALUE

       Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
