Create public and private keys (with ssh-keygen -- read the man page) and install them.

Then you can use a command like:

Code:

remoteuser=myname
remotecomputer=example.com
ssh -l "$remoteuser" "$remotecomputer" "ls -l; date; "

To capture the result either redirect it to a file or store it in a variable with command substitution.

I repeat:

Create public and private keys (with ssh-keygen -- read the man page)
and install them.
