Hi All,

I am looking for a shell script for SFTP a file and not prompting for the
password.
I wrote the small script but it doesn't work. I am trying to download the
file by name test located at /root directory on System with IP 10.77.31.202.
The userid and password of 10.77.31.202 is root and venkat. Could some one
correct this please.

#! /bin/sh

HOST='10.77.31.202'
USER='root'
PASSWD='venkat'

ftp $HOST
user ${USER} ${PASSWD}

cd /root/
get test

exit 0

Regards,
Venkat
