Automate scp between servers
Hello,
Could someone please help me with the below requirement?
I need to automate scp files between two servers. I have a file having server names and paths to the folder like below
server1 /path/to/folder/ server1 /path/to/folder/
server1 /path/to/folder/ server2 /path/to/folder/
server2 /path/to/folder/ server2 /path/to/folder/
server2/path/to/folder/ server1 /path/to/folder/
and likewise
The script should read the server name in first column and get the location which is second column and scp it to the other server/location which is third column to the path which is fourth column. I have enabled passwordless authentication between server and the server from which I will be executing the script.
Can someone please help and advise? Please let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers,
Kochappa

app::nopaste::service::ssh
App::Nopaste::Service::ssh(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation App::Nopaste::Service::ssh(3pm)
NAME
App::Nopaste::Service::ssh - copies files to your server using scp
AUTHOR
Kevin Falcone "<falcone@cpan.org>"
Thomas Sibley "<trs@bestpractical.com>"
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
NOPASTE_SSH_SERVER
The hostname to which you ssh. The left-hand side of the colon in the scp. For example: "sartak.org".
NOPASTE_SSH_DOCROOT
The path on disk for your pastes. For example: "public_html/paste".
NOPASTE_SSH_WEBPATH
The path for URLs. For example: "http://sartak.org/paste".
NOPASTE_SSH_MODE
Octal permissions mode to set for the temporary file before uploading. For example: 0644.
NOPASTE_SSH_USE_DESCRIPTION
Use the supplied description in the paste filename for easier identification of pastes. Defaults to the source filename, if any, but
is overridden by an explicit "-d" or "--description" command line argument.
APACHE CONFIGURATION RECOMMENDATIONS
The following is a recommended Apache configuration you can drop into ".htaccess" in your paste dir.
RemoveHandler .cgi
RemoveHandler .pl
AddDefaultCharset utf-8
Options -ExecCGI -FollowSymLinks -Includes -MultiViews
It prevents common means of script execution so that ".pl" and ".cgi" files won't run and defaults the character set to UTF-8 so browsers
don't have to guess wrong.
