Public bug reported:
I am trying to automate installing the Teradata database.
The tdvm_init process (a python executable, not that it matters),
prompts for a password using the following line of text
"Please enter the Root Password if it has been changed by the user.
Press Enter to use the default Password:"
sshpass sees the text 'assword' and interprets it as meaning that the
password provided to sshpass was not accepted and terminates.
I guess this probably falls into the grey area between bug and ER. My
suggestion would be to add a flag that tells ssh to stop monitoring for
the 'assword' string after the first occurrence of the string has been
detected.
** Affects: sshpass (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Summary changed:
- sshpass terminates when running a remote script if the scroipt uses the
word 'assword'
+ sshpass terminates when running a remote script if the script executes a
program that outputs the text'assword'
