Thanks for the reply Tony!

I wanted to enhance the script in future,
saylike i needed to know what sudo privileges does the id have on remeote machine, that is why I wanted to login thru a script

there are several issues, I'm describing them down here.

1) there are like 300 servers in the SERVER_LIST file.On each server I should find if an ID exists or not.

2) Everytime the script executes It prompts me for a password. How to overcome this, I tried it with expect, but have no experience using expect.

3) ssh noacct@machine id
It prompts for a password again and again, I cannot execute echo $? (since its prompting for password again and again)

Thankyou for the help. I greatly appreciate.

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename] DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS. The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed. OPTIONS
The following option is supported: -a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it. NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |CSI |Enabled | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
attributes(5) WARNINGS
script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script. SunOS 5.10 30 Jan 2004 script(1)
