ssh: sending password from windows client
Hi.
My workstation is Windows. I use putty to connect to unix servers. The problem is that i'm doing it many times a day and each time i need to supply password. I have no control on ssh configuration on servers, because of account restrictions. So i can't use key authentication, how is suggested in putty faq. And putty can't send passwords, it is forbidden.
So, how can i overcome this? Is there any other client that can help me with this, may be with some additional scripts on windows side.
