Hi all,
I've written a script that takes a file, gzips it and is supposed to scp
it up to a server on the web. I say supposed to because I can't figure
out how exactly to pass a password to scp automatically.
I have tried:
scp ./file.gz user:pass@<ip address>:/tmp/
but this doesn't work. In case it's relevant, the output from ssh -V
is:
SSH Version OpenSSH_2.2.0p1, protocol versions 1.5/2.0.
Compiled with SSL (0x0090581f).
Regards,
Ruairi
