Using VCP or SFXCL for Secure File Transfer

Do you need to secure your scripted remote logon and file transfers? Use the VCP command-line utility or the SFXCL command-line tool bundled with SecureFX®. VCP and SFXCL support simple file transfers with SSH-based strong encryption and authentication.

VCP is part of VanDyke Software's Client Pack , a collection of command-line utilties and is included with the VShell® Server for secure automation. Two VCP options facilitate batch or scripted transfers. For example, the -i switch is used to specify a public key for authentication. This way, the batch file does not need to contain or make reference to a password, closing a major security hole. The public key can be secured using network privileges. The -r switch copies the entire directory structure recursively. A recursive copy command copies all files in the specified folder and files in any sub-folders.

With the SFXCL utility included with SecureFX 2.0 and later releases, the "QuickSync" flag can be used to synchronize two sites, or a pre-stored session from SecureFX's database can be used to transfer from one site to another.
