[plug] Using SCP without entering a password interactively

[Mike Hasleby]

List, 

We need to set up a script to copy files between two of our servers
using scp. Problem is, scp seems to need a password every time it is
used. This is unhelpful when it needs one at 2am when the script will be
run :)

Is there any way of passing a password to scp on the command line or in
a config file, etc.?

Thanks in advance
