Even, I put it like open(SCP,"scp source dest|"), the system still ask me to type in my password. Probably, that's another shell, I mean the ssh login shell is different from the one I run my script. So, I can not send my password from previous shell to new ssh shell.

It should be at the end of the line, as : open(SCP,"scp source dest|"); I think there is a way in ssh/scp to set up a similiar thing to an rhosts. This is one way to be coding a password into a script. That is the tradeoff of having some host trust your login / host combination.

But I have difficulty to fill in the password. What I like to do is, open (SCP, "| scp source destination"); print SCP scppassword; close SCP; Above code does not work for me. Any idea to make it work?

Merely use something like: system("scp Source Destination"); This would be the easiest way, or, also: `scp Source Dest`; More elaborate stuff can be done, but this is good for starters.
