Hi *,
I'm trying to connect to sftp server using password authentication in CL program. I've found, that I can do this:
My connection is successful, but now I'm trying to do some operations there.
The one of steps looks like:
printf "get /home/milbank/vpncfg.txt\nquit\n" | serverUserID@server
but in this place I'd like to do something like this (go to dir, create a list of files, get this list, quit):
printf "cd /home/myusr\nls > lista.txt\nget lista.txt\nquit\n" | serverUserID@server
Log of 'ls' operation shows:
sftp> ls > lista.txt
debug3: Sent message fd 4 T:7 I:4
debug3: Received stat reply T:101 I:4
debug1: Couldn't stat remote file: No such file or directory
Can't ls: "/home/myusr/>" not found
sftp> quit
I'm completely newbie in scripts area and don't want advices like "you can do it simplier using..." or "you can do it on another way". Copy-paste is the only way I understand in scripts world
I'd like to connect on the way shown in the article, but I don't know, how to prepare printf statement to generate a file with a list of files in given directory, and then download this file.
Directrory /home/myusr/ on remote exists, authority ok, 'pwd' command gives the correct directory afer cd /home/myusr/.
I've tried to do this from terminal by call qp2term -> ssh serverUserID@server. Command ls > lista.txt gave me exactly what I wanted. But I can't do that using sftp client. Is it even possible? I completely don't understand "Couldn't stat remote file: No such file or directory" in this log. Is it some administrative task or it's simply not possible to ls to file with sftp client?
