We are trying to automate the update of files on a couple of different

the password in a shell script? Or is there any other way we can do
this copy without being asked for a password?

Did you get this figured out?
Otherwise use ssh-keygen to make keys, put the public key on the server
you are connecting to in the .ssh/authorized_keys2 of the remote users
home dir, and then use a specific keyfile for the scp. I use it in
several places, it is pretty handy.

why they don't take their 'career' seriously.
