sshpass 1.04 (Default branch)
Sshpass is a tool for non-interactivly performing password authentication with SSH's so called "interactive keyboard password authentication". Most users should use SSH's more secure public key authentication instead.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
Support was added for reporting the reason forfailure through the program's return codes. Alloutstanding bugs were fixed. The password ishidden from the command line, which is not aperfect security measure, but better than nothing.Image

tentacle_client

TENTACLE_CLIENT(1)					   Client file transfer protocol					TENTACLE_CLIENT(1)

NAME

       tentacle_client - a client file transfer protocol

SYNOPSIS

       tentacle_client <options> Tentacle is a client/server file transfer protocol that aims to be:

       -   Executable programs or shell commands
       -   System calls (functions provided by the kernel)
       -   Library calls (functions within program libraries)

       Tentacle  was  created  to  replace  more complex tools like SCP and FTP for simple file transfer/retrieval, and switch from authentication
       mechanisms like .netrc, interactive logins and SSH keys to X.509 certificates. Simple password authentication over a SSL secured connection
       is supported too.

       The  client  and  server  (TCP port 41121) are designed to be run from the command line or called from a shell script, and no configuration
       files are needed.

       Tentacle is now the default file transfer method for Pandora FMS and Babel Enterprise.

       Tentacle is implemented in Perl and ANSI C (Windows platforms included).

       You can download it and get more information at the official Sourceforge website http://tentacled.sourceforge.net/.

OPTIONS

       Tentacle Client options :
	      -a address : Server address (default 127.0.0.1).
	      -c : Enable SSL without a client certificate.
	      -e cert : OpenSSL certificate file. Enables SSL.
	      -f ca : Verify that the peer certificate is signed by a ca.
	      -g : Get files from the server.
	      -h : Show help.
	      -k key : OpenSSL private key file.
	      -p port : Server port (default 41121).
	      -q : Quiet. Do now print error messages.
	      -r number : Number of retries for network operations (default 3).
	      -t time : Time-out for network operations in seconds (default 1s).
	      -v : Be verbose.
	      -w : Prompt for OpenSSL private key password.
	      -x pwd : Server password.

EXAMPLES

       tentacle_client -a 192.168.1.1 -v /bin/bash
	      Simple file transfer with maximum file size set to 1MB

       tentacle_client -a 192.168.1.1 -x password -v /bin/bash
	      Simple file transfer with password authentication (not secure)

       tentacle_client -a 192.168.1.1 -x password -e cert.pem -k key.pem -v /bin/bash
	      Secure file transfer with client certificate and password authentication

NOTES

       Tentacle requires Perl 5.8 or higher to works
