Copying between servers 1

[nashcom]

I've got a UnixWare 7.1.4 and a UnixWare 7.1.3 server. I sometimes use a command such as:

scp -rp /source/* 192.168.0.1:/destination

to copy a directory from one server to the other. However, this requires me to manually key the root password for the destination server.

I suspect it's possible to allow a server to become 'trusted' to the other, so that I could perform the copy as an unattended script.

Is this easy to do, or does it involve massive tweaking of files that could cause problems...?

Thanks

David

See this FAQ... it's for Linux, but the process is the same:
