Jerry,

You may take a look at Validation Lists.

I know Carsten flensberg wrote some tools around them.
Think they were meant for this purpose.

We are doing some sFTP file transfers using python and pexpect.

Our partner has specified sFTP with userid/password.

We have it working fine but the password is stored in plain text.

Any good ways to encrypt is?

Thanks,

Jerry
