Full Discussion: Testing ssh connection from KSH script
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Testing ssh connection from KSH script Post 73392 by tom_xx_hu@yahoo on Tuesday 31st of May 2005 11:00:54 PM

It seems to me different issues Dylan and Bakunin are talking about.

Dylan's concern is how to verify the remote service (sshd, specifically) is alive before trying to request the service. This can be done by Nagios script, check_ssh.

Bakunin's question is more complicated. You may need google "sshd key without password host authentication". There are hundreds of postings/docs explaining this.

Cheers,
Tom

pam_allow

pam_allow(5)						Standards, Environments, and Macros					      pam_allow(5)

NAME

       pam_allow - PAM authentication, account, session and password management PAM module to allow operations

SYNOPSIS

       pam_allow.so.1

DESCRIPTION

       The  pam_allow  module  implements  all	the  PAM service module functions and returns PAM_SUCCESS for all calls. Opposite functionality is
       available in the pam_deny(5) module.

       Proper Solaris authentication operation requires pam_unix_cred(5) be stacked above pam_allow.

       The following options are interpreted:

       debug	Provides syslog(3C) debugging information at the LOG_AUTH | LOG_DEBUG level.

ERRORS

       PAM_SUCCESS is always returned.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Allowing ssh none

       The following example is a pam.conf fragment that illustrates a sample for allowing ssh none authentication:

	 sshd-none  auth    required	  pam_unix_cred.so.1
	 sshd-none  auth    sufficient	  pam_allow.so.1
	 sshd-none  account sufficient	  pam_allow.so.1
	 sshd-none  session sufficient	  pam_allow.so.1
	 sshd-none  password sufficient   pam_allow.so.1

       Example 2 Allowing Kiosk Automatic Login Service

       The following is example is a pam.conf fragment that illustrates a sample for allowing gdm kiosk auto login:

	 gdm-autologin auth  required	 pam_unix_cred.so.1
	 gdm-autologin auth  sufficient  pam_allow.so.1

NOTES

       The interfaces in libpam(3LIB) are MT-Safe only if each thread within the multi-threaded application uses its own PAM handle.

       This module is intended to be used to either allow access to specific services names, or to all service names not specified (by	specifying
       it as the default service stack).
