Hi,

I am not able to give the password in Unix script for SFTP connection.

When I am trying to manully SFTP command for accessing the server , it asking for pwd and I could provide the pwd but I am not getting how to provide the pwd inside the Unix script.

sftp -v user@xyz.com.

#!/usr/bin/ksh
INGXDIR=/dev
# FTP to Vital
echo "Connecting to Vital...."
 sftp -v bcb@fxyz.com << EOF_FTP
cd $INGXDIR
binary
mput NewWdir.zip
bye
EOF_FTP

The best way is to create ssh keys, then sftp beomes passwordless, which is how it was intended to work.

ssh-keygen: password-less SSH login

Hi,

Could you please explain me how to establish the Key between two server.

Need step information which i need to follow.
My server : abc

Vital server :xyz

Please let me know how to access the xyz server by SSH key.

Notes :We don't have any other option to pass the pwd in Unix script.
Please reply me .

Thanks
Vineeta

The link contains fairly detailed information.

What step are you stuck on?

Ask your unix SA team to install the abc server public keys into xyz server
