MySQL spawn: not found

Hi,

I'm very new to UNIX.

I need to FTP a file to a remote host. It happens through a port 2222.I need to automate the process as the SCP command prompts for a password.

1) The regular ftp, tells me that the connection is refused
2) The sftp login@remotehost
gives me 'No name associated...blab blab' error. It does not even prompt me for a password.

sftp -b batchfile login@remotehost
gives me "connection refused" message

sftp -o port=2222
its gives me a message that sftp2 -o is not a valid entry

I tried to automate by adding public keys ID_dsa.pub to remote machine but due to IT security I do not have the option to access the .ssh folder

3) I try the spawn scp -P 2222 file_name login@remote host
expect "password: $"
send "Password\r"

It gives me spwan: not found
...$ no such file or directory
send : not found

Please help me on this
