We want to use sftp in batch and we have a problem with the return code
openssh sftp retuns. If for example, you try to get/pit a file that does
not exist, you will receive a rc = 0. 

We have tested sftp -b test.txt -oBatchMode=yes donypie@10.33.2.142
2>debug.log

and then analyze debug.log with a perl BUT it will be a lot of work !.

Does anybody know how we can resolve this problem ? 

What OpenSSH version is this, and what's the content of "test.txt"?
Current version seems to behave OK.

$ cat test.txt
put nosuch /tmp/tmp2
$ sftp -b test.txt -obatchmode=yes localhost
sftp> put nosuch /tmp/tmp2
File "nosuch" not found.
$ echo $?
1

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
