File not found quite probably means file not found and is unlikely to mean anything else. Perhaps you're not quite where you meant to be, try doing an 'ls' and seeing what output you get, what files actually are there. Perhaps there's a minor spelling or capitalization issue.

Also, if you set up ssh keys properly instead of brute-forcing the password with expect, your life will be much easier, since sftp will simply do as its told without fanfare and no expect-script (and no insecurely-stored plaintext password!) required.

vnc4passwd

vncpasswd(1)						     Virtual Network Computing						      vncpasswd(1)

NAME

       vncpasswd - change a VNC password

SYNOPSIS

       vncpasswd [passwd-file]

DESCRIPTION

       vncpasswd  allows  you  to set the password used to access VNC desktops.  It stores an obfuscated version of the password in the given file
       (default $HOME/.vnc/passwd).  The vncserver script runs vncpasswd the first time you start a VNC desktop, and invokes Xvnc with the  appro-
       priate -rfbauth option.	vncviewer can also be given a password file to use via the -passwd option.

       The  password  must be at least six characters long, and only the first eight characters are significant.  Note that the stored password is
       not encrypted securely - anyone who has access to this file can trivially find out the plaintext password, so vncpasswd always sets  appro-
       priate  permissions  (read and write only by the owner).  However, when accessing a VNC desktop a challenge-response mechanism is used over
       the wire making it hard for anyone to crack the password simply by snooping on the network.

FILES

       $HOME/.vnc/passwd
	      Default location of the VNC password file.
