Did I say anything about using passwords for ssh?
Again, this has nothing to do with your assertion that
using tn3270 over a ssh tunnel would expose the userid and password.
This thread is specifically about using ssh tunnel to provide SSL for non-SSL
TCP apps. TN3270 (without enabling SSL) is being used for context that everyone
in this group understands.
You ask how I would get your TSO userid / password when you run TN3270 thru an ssh
tunnel. Very simply, the userid & password would likely be the same for both.
Assuming you automated ssh with userid & password exposed, I just look at your
script.
I don't understand the strife.
It's true that we normally go username/password for 3270 sign-on.
It's also true that we *can* sign-on using username/password with SSH.
But the latter is not recommended when you have SSH keys. And the
subject is "unattended" where keys would be *very* desirable.
