you may use sftp. here you need to either set trust between the two accounts or use expect to feed user name and password. here links:<br />

Thanks guys for your suggestions, but I will not be able to use SCP or SFTP because my boss insists on ssl. As far as I know this is because the server from which i get the file does not allow a SSH, they allow SSL.

<div>
You may use lftp (<a href="http://lftp.yar.ru/" rel="ugc">http://lftp.yar.ru/</a>), which supports ftp over SSL connections.

My shell script in SunOS 5.8 ftp data from an external server. I didnt have an issue in it till now. Now that my organization policy does not allow ftp due to security reasons, i have to try ftping over a ssl handshake. Can some one help me what the prerequsits are to do it, and may be some guidance how this should actually be done. This is a daily batch process and I have to accomplish it in my scripts, hence shell script samples (or links to it) are welcome. Thanks in advance.

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.

HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over a computer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consists of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security (TLS) or its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The main motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the visited website and to protect the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data. HTTPS is widely used for protecting page authenticity on all types of websites, securing accounts and keeping user communications, identity and web browsing private.

SSL / HTTPS

Networking software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.
