James,

You can run Expect on IBM i, in PASE. (That's what I've done to work around this issue.)

I've written several articles about it, and given talks on it at user groups and conferences. The handouts from my talk can be found here:

And the articles I've written about it are here:

I've been looking for a simple way to automate sftp on the System i. On
linux I can use the expect tool which works perfectly. If this was
regular ftp I have simple ways of automating the login process, but sftp
does not work the same way. The sftp server will not allow me to store my
public key there so I can't use key authentication. sftp does support a
batch mode but only when using key authentication. Any suggestions?

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
