Re: Writing a SFTP script from a RPG program

Here's how I invoke sftp from CL:

CHGVAR VAR(&SFTPCMD) VALUE('/QOpenSys/usr/bin/' +
*CAT &SFTP *BCAT '-vvv -b +
/<somedir>/Script/<somescript>.txt' *BCAT +
<somehost> *BCAT '>> +
/<somedir><somelogfile>.txt 2>&1')

QSH CMD(&SFTPCMD)

<somescript> is on the IFS in a directory. You could use the IFS routines
to write the script file, or write the command to a phsyical file and use
CPYTOSTMF to copy it to the IFS. You could probably use your existing FTP
script program. Both FTP and sFTP use gets and puts and stuff.

I have a RPG program writing a FTP script and executing it. Now
management says it needs to be SFTP.

I understand that it runs from QSH and it runs on the IFS.

I will not be in charge of getting SFTP working just the program to write
and execute the script.

Does anyone have any sample code they would be willing to share?
