Passwordless SFTP
Hi, When Iam trying to do SFTP it is asking for password everytime. Can I have any alternative where I can provide the password in script itself. Because there are some control-M jobs which runs without user interaction. So please let me know the script where we can provide the password in the script itself so that the password will be automatically triggered.
