ssh - at login Passphrase for key required
Hello,
I want to use a shell-script to transfer data over sftp.
I donīt find a way to login in automatically.
I tried to send the password in a script like possible with
ftp
sftp user@server << cmd
password
cd /distant/directory
lcd /local/directoryget ssh_install
get ( or put) your files
quit
cmd
It doesnīt work. So I tried to use a public key (Public key authentication). But now I always have to write the
passphrase - same problem again.
How is it possible to connect withput password or phrase?
Thanks!
Oliver
