Hi folks,
I have a perl script that issue SecureFTP(sftp) to automate the file
transfer and the password prompt.
When the script runs in the foreground, it works, and it takes the
password.
Example:
[echen@startnet11 ~]$ ksh EDC.ksh Eddie.cmd
[email protected]'s password:
sftp> put zvm.note zvm.note
Uploading zvm.note to /users/nyse/zvm.note
sftp> ls -l zvm.note
-rwxr-x--- 0 0 0 667 Jul 12 19:08 zvm.note
sftp> bye
Note: The input file "Eddie.cmd" contains the userid and password.
When I run the script in background, the password prompts comes back to
my terminal and not to the script.
Example:
[echen@startnet11 ~]$ ksh EDC.ksh Eddie.cmd&
[17] 8228
[email protected]'s password:
Also when I do the "ps" I see the script sitting idle.
echen 27044 27043 0 18:08 pts/9 00:00:00 sftp -b
/tmp/sftp_batch27041 [email protected]
the question is, is there other way where I can get password working running
in the background.
my $expect = Expect->spawn("sftp -o 'BatchMode no' -b $BATCH $user\@$host");
$expect->expect(10,"password:");
$expect->send("$password\n");
$expect->interact;
