[olug] sftp using cURL

[Aric Aasgaard]

I guess I never considered using cURL for pushing files. 

"i'm trying to push a file to an sftp server using curl."

I did read that but to me for some reason it still meant grab a web part and
send it to a sftp server.  

Sorry, I'm new....

" curl -T /home/.../.../.../.../.../8.3  -u username:password sftp://
www.domain.com/opt/www_sites/.../.../8.3 "

just curious why use curl for that?
