The best ways is to use "sftp"

If you have "ssh-key generation between the client and host server then sftp is the best option.

code :

sftp $servername <<END_SCRIPT

Your code

END_SCRIPT

If you know concept of key gen then use sftp. keygen establish a connection between 2 server by which u dont need userid and pwd for connection..

bin
lcd <DESTINATION DIR>
cd <REMOTE DIR>
mget *.*

END_SCRIPT
