Question SSH version of rlogin (ie without password prompt)
I have 3 Solaris 10 UNIX servers, the shadow and passwd file are all identical and are automatically sync every 5 minutes. A majority of the users do not have CLI access but rather use a menu. I currently have menu options that allows them to rlogin to another server and I need to have the ability to do the same, just with ssh.

Are you doing remote login using .rhosts? If so, take a look at public key authentication. Otherwise, just replace rlogin with ssh, the options should largely be the same, as long as you don't use exotic options.
