Hi folks. I have ssh access to a server (A) where public key authentication is not allowed. I want access information on (A) from a cron script on server (B).
I figure there must be a way to wrap ssh in script that takes the password in clear text as one argument. It's probably heresy to a lot of people but I'm sure it can be done. And if the file permissions are set right I don't see why it should be any less secure than public keys with empty pass phrases. But how is it done? alex -- Alex Polite http://plusseven.com/gpg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
