hi,
basically i am trying to write a quick script to remote copy something as follow.

"" scp user@192.168.1.5:/var/tmp/file.txt /var/tmp/newfile.txt ""

if i do above cmd on the shell, i will be asked for password:

my question is, how i do automate the password part within the shell script to make it just copy without prompting for the password.


thanks
