Re: Using Expect Script for SFTP

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan,

This mailing list is for HTTPAPI and FTPAPI, please.   This question is 
not about either.

Instead, please consider using one of these fine sites to ask your question:

http://www.code400.com (web-based forums)
http://www.midrange.com (e-mail based discussion lists)

Or IBM's IBM i Cafe on DeveloperWorks
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/forum?id=11111111-0000-0000-0000-000000002675

Thanks!
