Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi All,

I am looking for scripts where i need check normal user password and root password for more 100 servers from single server...!


let me explin it what exacltly i need...!

i need to do password audit for more than 600 boxes...

for one normal user and root password also... Just login to all the server and checking the passwords whether its working or not

u can guess i how boring job is this..!

just i need a script for this..! could some one help me for this...?

Hi.

I would probably use expect for this. It's not a trivial program to learn, but it seems right for this task. There is a long man page, and also a book from O'Reilly, Exploring Expect, by Don Libes ... cheers, drl

Could some one help me on this...?

Are you saying that there are common passwords for root and a generic user on over 600 of your servers? And, that you want to embed them in a script?

So, something like:

Code:

while read zf
  do
   rlogin $zf -l root
   echo "logged into $zf as root"
   rlogin $zf -l any_user
   echo "logged into $zf as any_user"
done < list_servers

I think you've asked the same question before, please read the answers there, or post more info.

Hi All,

else "not working"

through script for almost 600 servers
