Hi Peeps,
Does anyone know if it is possible to use rsync to back up an ftp site
that uses a password.
I am aware of rsync://[USER@]HOST[:PORT]/SRC [DEST] but how do I
handle the password?
If this is not possible does it mean I have to use sftp?
Thanks in advance
I would use a "HEREDOC" in a bash script or you can use Expect which has
a "macro mode" which will create record what you type during a normal
login session then output to the script.
