Hi,

I want to enter an ssh session without having to type the password (to be used by a script). The "remote" is a router with embedded, and it is not possible to create public key pairs because it is not a shell, but one with a limited command set.

I can give the user, like:

ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]

but I haven't found a way in the man to give also the password, as there is for instance in ftp.

I think there is something like chat ? but I'v never used it and I'm unsure how.


If any one is worried about security, don't: for instance, if you use subversion with ssh access (to Novell, for instance) the password is stored in clear text in ~/.subversion/auth, and the file is world readable! (Was, rather, I changed it). So subversion must be giving the password somehow.
