Modify FTP script to have SCP

Hi,

I have an existing FTP script and I am trying to modify this to do SCP rather than FTP. I checked the man help in SCP and still having a hard time doing this...

Current FTP script..

ftp -n << EOF > $LOG_FILE
verbose
open ${SERVER}
$LOGON
cd ${REMOTE_FILE_PATH}
get ${REMOTE_FILE_NAME}
close
bye

EOF


LOG_FILE, SERVER, LOGON, REMOTE_FILE_PATH are parameters passed to it.
LOGON has the userid and password for that particular server.

The SCP script that I am trying to do is..

scp -v << EOF > $LOG_FILE
open ${SERVER}
$LOGON
cd ${REMOTE_FILE_PATH}
get ${REMOTE_FILE_NAME}
close
bye

EOF


I couldn't find the relative -n parameter in SCP...But verbose in FTP can be replaced by -v.

I would appreciate any help in this..

Thank You,
Madhu

ftpconfig(1M)						  System Administration Commands					     ftpconfig(1M)

NAME
ftpconfig - set up anonymous FTP SYNOPSIS
ftpconfig [ftpdir] ftpconfig -d ftpdir DESCRIPTION
The ftpconfig script is executed by the super user to set up anonymous FTP. Anonymous FTP allows users to remotely log on to the FTP server by specifying the user name ftp or anonymous and the user's email address as password. The anonymous users are logged on to the FTP Server and given access to a restricted file area with its own file system root. See chroot(2). The FTP area has its own minimal system files. This command will copy and set up all the components needed to operate an anonymous FTP server, including creating the ftp user account, creating device nodes, copying /usr/lib files, and copying timezone data. The passwd and group files set up have been stripped down to prevent malicious users from finding login names on the server. The anonymous file area will be placed under ftpdir. If the ftp user account already exists, then the current FTP area is used, and the system files in it are updated. All other files are left untouched. This command should be run to update the anonymous FTP area's configuration whenever a system patch is installed, or the system is upgraded. OPTIONS
-d Create a new or update an existing ftpdir without creating or updating the ftp user account. Use this option when creating guest FTP user accounts. OPERANDS
The following operands are supported: ftpdir The absolute pathname of the directory under which the anonymous FTP area is set up. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion 1 Improper usage of the command 2 Command failed ATTRIBUTES
