SSH through another id

First off, I don't have root permissions Smilie. All I have is sudo rights.

Im trying to ssh with another ID to multiple servers without the server asking for a password. The other ID already has ssh keys on all the other servers and can pass through the other server with a password of passphrase. But I can't use that same other ID in a script to pass through other servers without using a password or the the script not doing anything at all. Here is the current script I have now:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
 
echo "`date +%D:%H:%M:%S`" ; read -p " User ID"= UserID
 
echo "`date +%D:%H:%M:%S`"
read -p "Enter Server(s)"= servertext

for i in $servertext
do
        echo "$i"
        echo "`date +%D:%H:%M:%S`"
        ssh -t -t  ssh -f -o "Batchmode yes"   -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" AnotherID@$i   id $UserID
done

If I take out the -o "Batchmode yes" , and leave in -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" the server that I'm ssh -ing to asks for a password.

If I leave in the -o "Batchmode yes" and take out -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" , enter a service name , as soon as I press enter, it does this :

Enter Server(s)= servername

[User@servername~] $


Goes back to the command prompt.

In the other ID, i've already made a config file in the .ssh directory. In the config file are these options :
Code:
 
StrictHostKeyChecking no
FallBackToRsh no
BatchMode yes
CheckHostIP no
UsePrivilegedPort no

That's all I have.

SSH-KEYSIGN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    SSH-KEYSIGN(8)

NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for host-based 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 host-based authentication with SSH protocol version 2. ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting EnableSSHKeysign 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 host-based authen- tication. FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled. /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_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 host- based authentication is used. /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key-cert.pub /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key-cert.pub /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key-cert.pub If these files exist they are assumed to contain public certificate information corresponding with the private keys above. ENVIRONMENT
SSH_USE_STRONG_RNG The reseeding of the OpenSSL random generator is usually done from /dev/urandom. If the SSH_USE_STRONG_RNG environment variable is set to value other than 0 the OpenSSL random generator is reseeded from /dev/random. The number of bytes read is defined by the SSH_USE_STRONG_RNG value. Minimum is 14 bytes. This setting is not recommended on the computers without the hardware random genera- tor because insufficient entropy causes the connection to be blocked until enough entropy is available. SEE ALSO
