The normal method of logon using ssh requires the the user input a password. Because of security issues, this cannot be circumvented by any other method. All I wanted to do was to poll around fifty servers for information. Each has the same logon name and password. Now, I need to manually send the password for each and every server.

The passphrase for your ssh keyring? If you script that, you might as well have no passphrase at all. -- Michel Bardiaux Peaktime Belgium S.A.
