sun ssh client / password
Hi all,

is there a "password parameter" to login to a server with Suns ssh client (Sun_SSH_1.1)?

I would like to do something like:
ssh -l myuser -p mypassword myserver "mycommand"

P.S.: I know how unsecure that is and how Public-key cryptography works.
Therefore is such a suggestion not necessary. Thanks.

bye,
vic

why would you want to? it kind of defeats the object doesn't it?

No such command option exists.

... best you can do, is use an expect script, something like
Code:
# cat myssh
   /usr/localbin/expect --
   spawn ssh  [ lindex $argv 0]@[ lindex $argv 1]
   expect Password:
   send [lindex $argv 2]\r
   expect "#"
   send "my command\r"
   expect "#"   #or whatever the prompt is
   send exit\r
   expect "#"    # or whatever the prompt is
   exit 0

# myssh user hostname password "my command"

or setup a NULL key but you should understand the risks.
