ssh-keygen questions (not working)
Ok. The program still is not working. It still is asking for a password. The funny thing is when I use 'ssh dwebapp1' at the command line it will show 'source user@remote host'
<<source>>
#!usr/bin/ksh
hostname=dwebapp1
login_name=clport
# password=
if [ -n `ssh $login_name@$hostname 'ls test/testfile.txt 2>/dev/null'` ]; then
echo file exists
else
echo "file doesn't exist";
fi
<<output>>
$ ksh file_exists.ksh
clport@dwebapp1's password:
file exists

SSH-ARGV0(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ARGV0(1)
NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling
SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command]
hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name]
[-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command]
