Re: CMD Confirm. Prompt Issue When Connecting to FTP (explicit) With a IP address for the Hostname.

The -certificate switch should take care of that. Please attach a full session log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP). Do not mask out the certificate fingerprints (it's not a sensitive information).

CMD Confirm. Prompt Issue When Connecting to FTP (explicit) With a IP address for the Hostname.

Hello all, I am having some issues while trying to automate a batch file to connect to a FTP (explicit). The issue seems to steam from the Certificate being self-signed and the hostname being a IP address. I ran the program manually and entered (Y) to trust the certificate multiple times but no luck.

I've also tried to enter echo y or echo y | [command] in multiple places on the batch file, but no luck as well. I think Windows might be forcing the user to give input instead of taking commands from the batch file.

I am quite new to FTP's and batch files so any advise would be greatly appreciated.
