Good morning Rick,   

   It's SFTP. We have data transmissions that are FTP, SFTP with password and 
SFTP without password where we have the public key
on the target server. The problem is when running in the background("&") mode 
where the "password" prompts don't seems to be
presented to the running script where "except" to see, rather came back to the 
terminal session.


   my $expect = Expect->spawn("sftp -o 'batchMode no' -b $BATCH $user\@$host ");
   $expect->expect(30,"password:");
   $expect->send("$password\n");
   $expect->interact;
   $rc=$?;


 Thanks and Regards,

    Eddie 


  P.S. 

    Did we had a great time at the VM workshop!

[sigh]  Not the first time.

The good news then is that use of SSH keys is all that much easier for Eddie's 
scenario.

Right.  I don't use either one anymore ... for reasons beyond this thread.
