Jiri Kremser Jiri Kremser This the only answer that actually answers the question. I've been Googling and analyzing the scp manual for way too long trying to find this feature, and I guess scp doesn't have it. This seems to be the best, most flexible answer.

There we go! I'd upvote that many times, but I just can do it once! Thank you Vouze! Thanks for helping with spaces in the file names. Tagar Tagar Brace expansions like this are a Bash feature, and not portable to e.
POSIX sh. I use ksh all the time and it works there too. PS: Motivated by this great answer: scp or sftp copy multiple files with single command Based on the comments, this also works fine in Git Bash on Windows.
After successful authentication, you will get a sftp prompt. Where you can download or upload files securely. To get available commands type help on sftp prompt.
Use get command to download file from sftp server to local system drive. It becomes much easier to fathom what is happening. The manual clearly states: The final usage format allows for automated sessions using the -b option. It is wrong to put your password in your batch file. I downvoted this answer because it is the opposite of what the question asks. The "P. Things are rarely "right" or "wrong" but compromises and tradeoffs of different factors.

Thanks Reply. Got something to say? Join the discussion. Cancel reply Have a question or suggestion? If more than one pattern is provided, they should be separated by whitespace.
The host is the hostname argument given on the command line i. A pattern entry may be negated by prefixing it with an exclamation mark "! If a negated entry is matched, then the Host entry is ignored, regardless of whether any other patterns on the line match. Negated matches are therefore useful to provide exceptions for wildcard matches.
Specifies whether to try rhosts -based authentication with public key authentication. Specifies the protocol version 2 host key algorithms that the client wants to use in order of preference. The default for this option is the following really, really long string: [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , ecdsa-sha2-nistp,ecdsa-sha2-nistp,ecdsa-sha2-nistp, ssh-rsa,ssh-dss If hostkeys are known for the destination host then this default is modified to prefer their algorithms.
Specifies an alias that should be used instead of the real hostname when looking up or saving the host key in the host key database files. This option is useful for tunneling SSH connections or for multiple servers running on a single host.
Specifies the real hostname to log into. This can specify nicknames or abbreviations for hosts. The default is the name given on the command line. Numeric IP addresses are also permitted both on the command line and in HostName specifications. Additionally, any identities represented by the authentication agent will be used for authentication. It is possible to have multiple identity files specified in configuration files; all these identities will be tried in sequence.
Multiple IdentityFile directivesadd to the list of identities tried this behaviour differs from that of other configuration directives. This option is intended for situations where ssh-agent offers many different identities. Accepted values are " af11 ", " af12 ", " af13 ", " af21 ", " af22 ", " af23 ", " af31 ", " af32 ", " af33 ", " af41 ", " af42 ", " af43 ", " cs0 ", " cs1 ", " cs2 ", " cs3 ", " cs4 ", " cs5 ", " cs6 ", " cs7 ", " ef ", " lowdelay ", " throughput ", " reliability ", or a numeric value.
This option may take one or two arguments, separated by whitespace. If one argument is specified, it is used as the packet class unconditionally. If two values are specified, the first is automatically selected for interactive sessions and the second for non-interactive sessions. The default is " lowdelay " for interactive sessions and "throughput" for non-interactive sessions.
Specifies whether to use keyboard-interactive authentication. Specifies the list of methods to use in keyboard-interactive authentication. Multiple method names must be comma-separated.
The default is to use the server specified list. The methods available vary depending on what the server supports. For an OpenSSH server, it may be zero or more of: " bsdauth ", " pam ", and " skey ".
Multiple algorithms must be comma-separated. The default is the following very long string: ecdh-sha2-nistp,ecdh-sha2-nistp,ecdh-sha2-nistp, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1, diffie-hellman-groupsha1, diffie-hellman-group1-sha1. Gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from ssh. The default is INFO. Specifies the MAC message authentication code algorithms in order of preference.
The MAC algorithm is used in protocol version 2 for data integrity protection. The default is the following string: hmac-md5,hmac-sha1, [email protected] , hmac-ripemd,hmac-sha,hmac-md, hmac-sha,hmac-sha,hmac-sha, hmac-sha This option can be used if the home directory is shared across machines.
In this case, localhost will refer to a different machine on each of the machines and the user gets many warnings about changed host keys. However, this option disables host authentication for localhost. The default is to check the host key for localhost. Specifies the number of password prompts before giving up. The argument to this keyword must be an integer.
The default is 3. Specifies whether to use password authentication. Specifies the order in which the client should try protocol 2 authentication methods. This allows a client to prefer one method e.
The default is: gssapi-with-mic,hostbased,publickey, keyboard-interactive,password. Specifies the protocol versions ssh should support in order of preference. The possible values are ' 1 ' and ' 2 '.
Multiple versions must be comma-separated. When this option is set to " 2,1 " ssh will try version 2 and fall back to version 1 if version 2 is not available. The default is ' 2 '.
Specifies the command to use to connect to the server. The command string extends to the end of the line, and is executed with the user's shell.
The command can be basically anything, and should read from its standard input and write to its standard output. It should eventually connect an sshd server running on some machine, or execute sshd -i somewhere.
Host key management will be done using the HostName of the host being connected defaulting to the name typed by the user. Setting the command to " none " disables this option entirely. Note that CheckHostIP is not available for connects with a proxy command.
This directive is useful in conjunction with nc and its proxy support. For example, the following directive would connect via an HTTP proxy at Specifies whether to try public key authentication.
