I need to access files on remote servers and need to do this in a script because there are 100's of servers and 1000's of files.
I've tried
ssh user@host 'ls -l /dir path/fileName'
but cannot figure out how to deal with the prompt for password (here document is of no help). I've read of a way to setup the local and remote hosts to permit ssh command to execute with out password but that is not a viable option in this case.
Any suggestion on how to get a password into ssh or perhaps another method of accessing the file information appreciated.
On the local machine:
Then copy the contents of $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote machine.
Make sure that only you can read the directory .ssh and the files it contains on both local and remote machines.
You should now be able to ssh to the remote machine without needing a password.

ssh-keysign
SSH-KEYSIGN(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SSH-KEYSIGN(8)NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for hostbased authentication
SYNOPSIS
ssh-keysign
DESCRIPTION
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature required during hostbased authentication with
SSH protocol version 2.
ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting
HostbasedAuthentication to ``yes''.
ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about hostbased authen-
tication.
FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled.
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, read-
able only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if hostbased
authentication is used.
