How to Copy a file to a Remote Network location using Credentials

I am trying to copy a file from a network to a remote server file directory.

 

The server directory requires a username and password to access.

 

We have a workaround where the server directory is mapped as a drive on the server running talend and a tFileCopy component just moves the files between the mapped drives. This isn't an ideal solution as it requires the machine to be always up and have a profile logged in so that the drive doesn't become disconnected (credentials for the drive can't be stored so log off means that the credential need to be re-entered)

 

We need a solution where we can pass the credentials during the file copy stage. 

 

SCP & FTP components don't seem to work (didn't really expect they would)

 

The server uses a dynamic IP so anything requiring a fixed IP address also doesn't work, it has to accept the server filepath.

 

Any help would be appreciated

Hi,

 

if environment is Linux - scp, sftp will be the simplest solution

if it windows with AD, you can use UNC path for shares, in this case, you will need to grant Talend user access to a network share, but do not need to store password anywhere

 

cheers
