hi everybody,
The question i want to ask is how can i automate ftp login and uploading and downloading of files using VSFTP on Linux, using shell scripts? In other words, can explicit login and typing of username password be avoided by using shell scripts in any way to login to a ftp server. can uploading and downloading of files be automated by the shell scripts in any way?
Also can anyone suggest me some alternative approach where ftp's explicit login be avoided and if there is some other opensource products like rsync etc . Can they match ftp in functionality?
Best regards, sushant gulati
