data from dmz boxes


Hi,

I am facing a problem with a script i have. I have some dmz boxes from where i need to get files. Those boxes won't allow ftp, or "ssh without password" things. Is there any other way i can get those files? Thanks in advance.

So basically you want to know how to make it so that your script can provide an SSH password?

Initially i was thinking of the same but came to know its a bad practice. But i'm considering one more option now. MAIL. Mailing from dmz to inside. Any better options?

SSH key authentication could help with this, along with ssh-agent
