Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Using expect to remote SSH and write to a local file Post 302954012 by Corona688 on Thursday 3rd of September 2015 11:45:30 AM

You are having this problem because you are using the third-party expect brute-forcing tool to cram a stored plaintext password into ssh. ssh is designed to prevent you from doing this because this is extremely insecure. If you use passwordless ssh keys as intended, your script will become as easy and simple as ssh username@host uptime > filename

Literally as simple as that.
