I am trying to copy a file from windows 7 to linux debian using SFTP
Filename is ba ck.bak
I am using SFTP to remotely put file through windows command prompt
If filename is back.bak then command executes successfully
sftp> sftpc root@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx -pw=XXXXX -cmd="put back.bak /tmp"
but if filename is ba ck.bak, i.e. with spaces error occurs
I had tried using
-cmd="put 'ba ck.bak' /tmp"
but doesn't work
I am using this file in a windows batch file, so I cannot execute by logging into sftp session and executing command there. I can also execute these commands through shell file, but I would not want to create new file each time.
