As part of our project dev , we need to create a shell script that COPY FILES FROM A SEPCIFIC DIRETORY OF THE LOCAL SYSTEM INTO A SPECIFIC LOCATION OF A REMOTE SERVER.
The main issues with this is requirement are : 1. THERE'S ONLY ONE SPECIFIC USERID (USER1) CONFIGURED TO THE SOURCE SYSTEM WHICH HAS PRIVILDEGES OF FILE TRANSFER FROM SERVER1 TO ANY OTHER REMOTE SERVER, HENCE WHATEVER SESSION MAY THE SHELL SCRIPT RUN IN, IT NEEDS TO SET IN SUCH A WAY SO AS TO EXECUTE THE FILE TRANSFER PROCESS USING THE SESSION OF USER1 ONLY 2.IF I AM USING THE SCP COMMAND , HOW WILL I BE ABLE TO AUTOMATE THE PASSING OF PASSWORDS TO THE SCRIPT ?
Any other alternatives will be higly regarded.
Additonal Info : I am using Korn Shell to build the script.
Thanks
Kumarjit.

shell
shell(1F) FMLI Commands shell(1F)NAME
shell - run a command using shell
SYNOPSIS
shell command [command] ...
DESCRIPTION
The shell function concatenate its arguments, separating each by a space, and passes this string to the shell ($SHELL if set, otherwise
/usr/bin/sh).
EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample output of shell command.
Since the Form and Menu Language does not directly support background processing, the shell function can be used instead.
`shell "build prog > /dev/null &"`
If you want the user to continue to be able to interact with the application while the background job is running, the output of an exe-
cutable run by shell in the background must be redirected: to a file if you want to save the output, or to /dev/null if you don't want to
save it (or if there is no output), otherwise your application may appear to be hung until the background job finishes processing.
shell can also be used to execute a command that has the same name as an FMLI built-in function.
NOTES
The arguments to shell will be concatenate using spaces, which may or may not do what is expected. The variables set in local environments
will not be expanded by the shell because "local" means "local to the current process."
