Use ssh with keys. Plenty of examples in the forum if you do a search.

Then you will have to enable ftp in your unix machine and no firewall between your 2 systems. If ok, you will be able to ftp from windows to unix, then execute the script as you wished.. if you were to google on that, there are examples for you Smilie

Not true. Download and install openssh for Windows, and you can use command line tools. Anyway, this is a Windows question, not a UNIX question.

Otheus, OP's initial post was to "ftp".. then he switched saying ssh.. Not sure how he wants it to be done. like you said, both way works..Smilie
