[Tutor] sftp using subprocess

[Asad]

Hi All ,

           I am not allowed to import pexcept   .Therefore only option I
have is to implement a solution using the standard libraries in python .

            However I am using subprocess.Popen for sftp I am unable to
pass the password.

I tried the following :

>>> import subprocess
>>> subprocess.Popen(['sftp','username at server.com', 'stop'],
stdin=PIPE).communicate(input='abc')


Enter password for username
Password:

  Here I am unable to proceed , I am sure someone would have cracked this
problem earlier if they can share the code

Thanks in advance,       .
