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.

vnc4passwd
vncpasswd(1) Virtual Network Computing vncpasswd(1)
NAME
vncpasswd - change a VNC password
SYNOPSIS
vncpasswd [passwd-file]
DESCRIPTION
vncpasswd allows you to set the password used to access VNC desktops. It stores an obfuscated version of the password in the given file
(default $HOME/.vnc/passwd). The vncserver script runs vncpasswd the first time you start a VNC desktop, and invokes Xvnc with the appro-
priate -rfbauth option. vncviewer can also be given a password file to use via the -passwd option.
The password must be at least six characters long, and only the first eight characters are significant. Note that the stored password is
not encrypted securely - anyone who has access to this file can trivially find out the plaintext password, so vncpasswd always sets appro-
priate permissions (read and write only by the owner). However, when accessing a VNC desktop a challenge-response mechanism is used over
the wire making it hard for anyone to crack the password simply by snooping on the network.
FILES
$HOME/.vnc/passwd
Default location of the VNC password file.
