Auto login with SFTP
Hi All,
How do you get around SFTP not having the 'cat' command to set up scripts to run cron jobs for passwords?
I am use to the FTP allowing that, but we are converting to SFTP and need to be able to still run the same scripts in off hrs. Is there a way to still cat the password at the prompt in the sftp> username
Password:
without doing it manually??

gesftpserver
gesftpserver(8) System Manager's Manual gesftpserver(8)
NAME
gesftpserver - Green End SFTP Server
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/gesftpserver [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
gesftpserver implements the SFTP protocol. It is normally run as an SSH subsystem but can be run in other contexts if necessary.
CONFIGURING OPENSSH
By default, OpenSSH will use its native SFTP server in response to requests for the SFTP subsystem. To use gesftpserver instead, add a
suitable Subsystem command to sshd_config (and remove the existing one if present). For example:
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/gesftpserver
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS
gesftpserver supports up to version 6 of the SFTP protocol and the following extensions:
newline
Reports the server's newline convention to the client.
space-available
Equivalent to df(1).
supported
v5 capability details
supported2
v6 capability details
text-seek
Used for resuming text file downloads.
vendor-id
Reports server name and version to client. gesftpserver reports a vendor of "Green End" and a server name of "Green End SFTP
Server".
versions
Lists available versions.
version-select
Select version.
posix-rename@openssh.org
Provides POSIX rename semantics even in pre-v5 SFTP.
