Sure, can we see the script sample ? Also, what does 'hardcoded' mean ?

What you want to do is create an ssh key for the user.
In a nutshell, create an ssh key for your user in serverA using ssh-keygen, then move the *.pub file that ssh-keygen creates to that user's .ssh directory into authorized_keys.
Then you don't need a passwd.
This is well documented. A web search should yield a detail procedure.

It is always good to follow the procedure mentioned by #System shock.
You need not to hardcode your password anywhere.
