Hi,
I am using sftp and trying to list all the contents from a directory and feed it to a log file. In the old ftp, when doing an 'ls -l' (or the 'dir' command) it lists everything in the directory without stopping. This is what I need sftp to do. Instead, sftp lists partial contents and then asks to enter any key to continue. I am running in batch mode, meaning non-interactive, so I won't be available to enter the key that it is waiting for. I did put 'ls -l' and 'l' (as a dummy for "pressing any key to continue"
to make sftp list the next set of contents. It did list the next set of contents but then the program hangs until the next stdin is entered. It is running non-interactive via batch file.
If anybody know some command I must feed to sftp to tell it to list all contents in the directory without stopping please let me know.
Thanks.
