copy files without password in script
1. I wrote a ftp code to copy a file from unix box to another unix box. But it has clear text password in the code. Due to security constraints, clear text password in the code is not allowed. Please let me know the ways to write the code without prompting for password.

2. I tried writing scp command using public/private key pairs. Donno wat mistake i found in this procedure, it is not working. I believe the mistake would be in the procedure. Something other than that like permissions, or server compatiblity or something else. Let me know these kind of constraints required for scp.

Please help me asap. I am breaking my head for two days for this Smilie

pqrm

NWPQJOB(1)                                                            nwpqjob                                                           NWPQJOB(1)

NAME

       nwpqjob - Perform operations on the jobs in NetWare print queue

SYNOPSIS

       nwpqjob [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] < -d | -r > queue_name job_ID [ another_job_ID ... ]

       pqrm [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] queue_name job_ID [ another_job_ID ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       pqrm or nwpqjob -d remove specified jobs from the specified NetWare print queue.

       nwpqjob -r resumes specified job in the specified NetWare print queue.

       nwpqjob looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information.
       Please note that the access permissions of .nwclient MUST be 600, for security reasons.

OPTIONS

       -d
          Delete specified print job(s). This is default operation for pqrm.

       -r
          Resume (clear OPERATOR HOLD and USER HOLD flags) specified print job(s).

       queue_name
          queue_name is used to specify queue. You can not use wildcards in the name.

       job_ID , another_job_ID
          job_ID is used to specify which job has to be deleted or resumed.

       -S server
          server is the name of the server you want to use.

       -U user name
          If the user name your NetWare administrator gave to you differs from your unix user-id, you should use -U to tell the server about  your
          NetWare user name.

       -P password
          You may want to give the password required by the server on the command line. You should be careful about using passwords in scripts.

       -n
          -n should be given to mount shares which do not require a password to log in.

          If neither -n nor -P are given, pqstat prompts for a password.

       -C
          By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off
          this conversion by -C.
