automating sftp
All,
This is a great forum for beginners like me. I have been following this thread in its multiple forms on various websites. I got a good start by following this thread but got stuck after doing exactly what has been mentioned in this thread word by word. The pain area : it was still prompting me for a password everytime.
Then, somebody suggested to recreate $HOME/.ssh directory again from scratch. Guess what, i did that and now i am able to log on from one server to another without being prompted for a password.
I dont know how much this information is gonna be useful to ppl but sure proved the definite solution for me and i thought i probably should share it with everybody.
Regards
Vikas.
