Try something like this:

sftp username@sftpserver << EOF
cmd1
cmd2
cmd3
...
exit
EOF

Hello All,
According to the man pages on SFTP you can use the -b to automate SFTP. The
-b points to a command file that has the sftp commands. Has anyone been
able to get SFTP to work in a script form like ftp. We do the following for
ftp automation:

echo "user username password" > ftpfile
echo "cd abcd" >> ftpfile
echo "get filename" >> ftpfile
echo "bye" >> ftpfile

ftp ftpsite < ftpfile

I have tried to do something similar with SFTP but cannot seem to get it to
work. This script needs to be run by a user other than the sftp login user.
According to the man pages I would have to do sftp username@sftpserver. Any
ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
