Here is what I need to do: I need to somehow automate an rsync from 1 box to several others.
I have set up SSH for RSAAuthentication, the method I'd prefer to use (over RHostsRSA). I am able to slogin to the other boxes w/o supplying the passphrase. But here is where I'm stuck. How do I make a script run w/o the passphrase? The goal is to put this script in the users crontab. I've googled for help on this, which is how I got to the point I'm at, but now I need some further guidance. I am notified by email when the boxes reboot, so logging back into them to add the passphrase back into memory isn't a problem. I'd rather not use Rhosts if I can avoid it, and I also want to avoid running rsync daemon. If anyone has suggestions on a better and/or more secure method to do this, happy to hear it. Ultimately, I'd also like to be able to trigger this sync from a webpage, so if anyone has done that (using sudo I'd imagine), feel free to suggest things there too.
