Is it possible to copy files to my Linux machine from another Linux machine automatically with FTP? By "automatically," I mean that FTP would need to handle submitting a login/password combination, as well as copy files, on its own.
Both machines run Red Hat 5.1. I want to get, for example, the file /root/file
from the second Linux machine onto my machine and put it under /var/tmp
without entering any login/password manually.
I don’t have expect
on my machine, and I don't want to use SSH authentication.
If this can't be done automatically by FTP, please suggest an alternate solution, such as a Python script.
Use key based SSH authentication and SCP.
