Operating Systems Solaris How to disable/bypass passphrase prompt in ssh? Post 302753443 by Corona688 on Tuesday 8th of January 2013 04:23:46 PM

Injecting passwords is not so much a "security risk" as "completely forgetting the point". Perhaps save yourself some trouble and just remove the password instead.

I expect you could do it with expect, but don't really see any reason to do so. It's no more secure than not having a password.
