While it may appear that 'ssh <IP address>' is connecting without authentication, there are several ways that ssh could be silently authenticating without requiring a password and without you realizing it (e.g. Kerberos, private key, ssh-agent). If you give the -v option on the OpenSSH client command-line, it will show you the steps it is going to authenticate the connection. There's a good chance that it's not actually unauthenticated. In today's world, there are few instances where that's a good idea. > > Thanks > Kishore > > On 17-Jul-2015 2:47 pm, "Peter Stuge" <pe...@stuge.se> wrote: > > Kishore Av wrote: > > I could able to connect ssh server only with username and without > > providing the password manually. > > Did you study the protocol specification? > > RFC 4252 5.2.
