Automatic logins to a remote machine via FTP

For Humans only


Automatic logins to a remote machine via FTP Print E-mail
You can enable automatic logins to a remote machine via FTP by adding a single line to the .netrc file which resides in the user's home directory (if it does not exist you can create it).

For example, if you want to create an automatic login to the machine 192.1.2.3 for user "test", in the "test" user's home directory you would create the file ".netrc".

In that file, you would add the following line:

  machine 192.1.2.3 login <username> password <password>
