Hello,

I need to automate an FTP session over SSL. Not sure if anybody else has done this and can provide some guidance.

Thanks.
 

Try sftp [3eyes]

sftp is ftp over ssh and is not an option.


 

Maybe this document may help. [noevil]

Curl and wget are command line URL getters, wget is more popular but does not support ftps (I think wget only supports http, https and ftp). Curl supports ftps, implicit & explicit modes, examples:

Get a file off an FTPS server:

curl ftps://files.are.secure.com/secrets.txt

or use the more appropriate FTPS way to get the same file:

curl --ftp-ssl ftp://files.are.secure.com/secrets.txt
 
Hi,

I think you mean sftp connections without giving password.
If so, google "ssh without password" and surf over displayed links
