You do not need to have PermitRootLogin Yes The forced-commands-only option means that you can only run the commands specified by the matching record in your authorized_keys file. This is from one of mine:-
This means that you can keep Security happy, because you still prevent login with ssh as root.
I suppose another way would be to use NFS and mount the ServerB directory on ServerA. You then could copy the data much more easily, as though it were a local resource. Do you know how to do this? It's a bit like mapping a network disk in Microsoft terms. This might give you security concerns though, as the data will be available on ServerA (subject to permissions) and you need to be careful with ownership. The files/directories ownership are stored as the UID & GID numbers and that can vary between servers, e.g. a file owned by bob, UID 1024 on ServerB may appear to be owned by sue on ServerA if sue has UID 1024 on ServerA.
Not sure if either of these suggestions helps or causes more headaches.

Hello,

Can anyone come up with a unix command that lists

Find all files in the current directory only excluding hidden directories and files.
For the below command, though it's not deleting hidden files.. it is traversing through the hidden directories and listing normal which should be avoided.

nfsmapid
nfsmapid(1M) System Administration Commands nfsmapid(1M)NAME
nfsmapid - NFS user and group id mapping daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/nfs/nfsmapid
DESCRIPTION
The nfsmapid daemon maps to and from NFS version 4 owner and owner_group identification attributes and local UID and GID numbers used by
both the NFS version 4 client and server.
nfsmapid uses the passwd and group entries in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to direct how it performs the mappings.
The nfsmapid daemon has no external, customer-accessible interfaces. You can, however, administratively configure nfsmapid in one of the
following ways:
o Specify the NFSMAPID_DOMAIN parameter in nfs(4)
o Specify the _nfsv4idmapdomain DNS resource record.
Please refer to the for further details.
ATTRIBUTES

nfs(4), attributes(5), smf(5)NOTES
The nfsmapid service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:
svc:/network/nfs/mapid
Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). The ser-
vice's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
If it is disabled, it will be enabled by mount_nfs(1M), share_nfs(1M), and automountd(1M), unless its application/auto_enable prop-
erty is set to false.
nfsmapid caches a user's UID and GID. If a user subsequently changes a UID or GID, using one of the utilities listed below, the nfsmapid
cache becomes stale. At this point, any NFS operation that gets or set attributes will result in the exchange of this stale information. To
resolve this situation, restart nfsmapid, as follows:
# svcadm restart svc:/network/nfs/mapid:default
The utilities that allow you to change UID and GID are:
o usermod(1M)
o userdel(1M)
o groupmod(1M)
o groupdel(1M)
o passmgmt(1M)
The nfsmapid daemon might not exist in a future release of Solaris.
