<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 576810 by <a href="/recipes/users/4170754/">ccpizza</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/paramiko/">paramiko</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/scp/">scp</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/ssh/">ssh</a>). Revision 20. </p> <p>This script copies files in unattended mode over SSH using a glob pattern. It uses the <a href="http://www.lag.net/paramiko/">paramiko</a> module behind the scenes. It operates as an actual SSH client, and does <em>not</em> rely on any command line utilities, such as <code>scp</code>.</p> <p>It first tries to connect using a key from a private key file or from an SSH agent. If RSA authentication fails, it will try to authenticate with a password if passwords are allowed on the SSH server. Assumes the <code>rsa_private_key</code> was generated with an empty passphrase.</p> <p>On most linux/unix-like systems paramiko can be installed with <code>sudo easy_install paramiko</code> or <code>pip install paramiko</code> or using the built-in system package manager.</p> <p>See also <a href="http://www.paramiko.org/installing.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.paramiko.org/installing.html</a></p>
