| Hi at all,
I'm Nicola.
I'd like to know how i can create an automatic sftp access.
I can't administer the user and password prompt.
My little example/idea:
#!/bin/sh
(
echo "my_password";
sleep 3
) | sftp my_user@213.123.123.2
.......but it doesn't work!
Any solutions?
thanks
| |
|
| ........in general I'd like to administer script that prompt any
information to insert in.
For example , how can i create an automatic user changing with "su -"
command??
my idea:
#! /bin/sh
(echo "root_passwd") | su -
.....but it doesn't work!!
thanks again

Hmm,
$ man -k dialogue | grep interactive
expect (1) - programmed dialogue with interactive programs

Saw it before posting my reply.
Did your script work? 
also do a
man autoexpect
autoexpect - generate an Expect script from watching a session

|
| unfortunately doesn't exist "expect" in my unix SunOs.
Anyway my last posted doesn't work!

Ask the system admin to add expect and autoexpect.
Tell him, it wil be used for automating regression testing
applications. 
If you tell him that you want to hardcode a passord in a script,
he'll reject it because of the security violations of putting
passwords in a script. (hint, hint)

| :D thanks a lot also for trick!

sftp isn't designed for scripting. If you want to script a file copy
over a secure connection, use scp instead.

Gee, that's a good idea, do something you know is insecure and lie to
the admin about it. On second thought, it sounds more like bad job
security.
The ability to script things like this without having to store
passwords in filesis built into the ssh toolset. If you've got sftp
then you've got ssh-agent.
I recommend "SSH The Secure Shell" by Barrett and Silverman (O'Reilly)
if you're going to be using the ssh toolset. Also see (besides the man
pages)
