Replace FTP with SCP

Hi All,

I was using FTP for transferring files from remotemachine.
Code below:

# FTP for Customercare log
#*************************

cd $TRACKING_LOGDIR
ftp -n $CUSTCARE_SERVER << END_INPUT >> $TRACKING_LOGDIR/ftp_custcare.log 2>&1
user $CUSTCARE_USER $CUSTCARE_PWD
asc
cd $CUSTCARE_HOME
prompt
mget $CUSTCARE_LOG.* // getting all log files
mdelete $CUSTCARE_LOG.* // deleting the logfiles after getting
cd arch
mput $CUSTCARE_LOG.* // putting the logfiles to archive directory
bye
END_INPUT


Now i need to replace FTP with SCP.
I have SSH key/certificate authorization for login.
How can i replace the entire code by SCP?

Thanks and Regards,

This is the general syntax for scp:

scp [options] [[user@]host1:]filename1 ... [[user@]host2:]filename2

In your case , the command should be something like:

scp -p [[root@]host1:]/$CUSTCARE_HOME/$CUSTCARE_LOG.* [[root@]host2:]*


I guess you have a option in SCP which would delete the files from the original location, once they are copied to the desired location.

Please check man pages for scp for more details.

If your scp doesn't have an option for that (mine doesn't; openssh on Ubuntu) you will simply have to ssh to the remote host and issue a separate rm command.
