Hi,

I want to enter an ssh session without having to type the password (to 
be used by a script). The remote is a router with embedded, and it is 
not possible to create public key pairs because it is not a shell, but 
one with a limited command set.


You probably can't provide a typed password from anything
other than the keyboard itself.

For security reasons, ssh and similar programs are
generally written to read only from /dev/tty.

Is it possible to create a file called rhosts
or hosts.equiv on the router?
on the





I can give the user, like:

ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]

but I haven't found a way in the man to give also the password, as there 
is for instance in ftp.


I think there is something like chat ? but I'v never used it and I'm 
unsure how.



If any one is worried about security, don't: for instance, if you use 
subversion with ssh access (to Novell, for instance) the password is 
stored in clear text in ~/.subversion/auth, and the file is world 
readable! (Was, rather, I changed it). So subversion must be giving the

You've gotta be kidding.
Someone needs to hit the subversion devs with a clue-bat.

As other posters mentioned 'expect' i won't.

 advise you to generate a ssh-key-pair and copy the

What part of it is not possible is not understood here?


Don't be so quick to be critical. I took Carlos statement

 to mean it was not possible on the REMOTE system, but it
 is certainly possible on his local one, which is all that
 is required so far as generating keys goes.

He can generate keys on his local system, however, it is
not possible to store either part on the router.
I have a similar type of router... it's a dumb little
machine meant stricty for interactive administration
(in fact, the ONLY way to do so is through a web
browser)



However, it may not be possible to copy his public key

 to the 'remote' router with embedded (linux?). Carlos

didn't say what limited commands were available, or

 whether it was even possible to copy files onto the router.

It seemed pretty obvious to me.

Lots of cheap home routers are braindamaged.

Mine is a cute little thing, supplied by my ISP with the adsl connection, 
and made by Broadcom


It has an administration web server, which uses http instead of https for 
the password, and requires javascript on the client, and text only clients 
like links or lynx fail.


But it also has telnet and ssh, and you can enable/disable any of them 
from the local/remote side, or allow from a range of IPs. it also has 
tftp, to save/upload the configuration or to flash the device.


The console commands are not bash, but it's own limited set of commands:

help
logout
save
save_and_exit
save_and_reboot
restore_defaults
reboot
adsl
atm
brctl
dumpcfg
arp
defaultgateway
dhcpserver
dns
igmp
lan
nat
passwd
ppp
proxyarp
remoteaccess
rip
route
statistics
wan
ping
sntp
snmp
build
tftp
version
wlan
log
macfilter
qos

and that's it. It can send the log of my syslog over the network, so I can 
see its firewall working, and when the connection failed; it also has snmp 
that I haven't been able to make much use of it. It does what it is 
supposed to do quite well for its size and price.


One thing the log doesn't have is the external IP, I have to get it by 
command. Now that I know how to execute commands using expect, I could 
use the trick to detect IP change in the log, and then use the command 
interface on a script to get the IP and log it. I wonder if I can fire it 
from syslog-ng.

We get what we pay for, I guess. Most users will be windows types, and 
they are not used to the shell. But I would appreciate an https interface, 
instead or added to the available http.



Ha! I would like the thing having a plugable flash card, so that I could 
buy my own memory card, program it, and replace its card, and thus play 
around with the features I wanted instead of theirs. The card being 
removable would allow ease recovery in case of a bad flashing.


I must be dreaming, not for that Little money!

It is a documented feature of subversion. And they also document how to 
dissable it, on the client. They should be able to dissable it on the

However, it is very convenient.

Well, this router (a comtrend CT536+) gets its image depending on the ISP

If my failing brain is working right you can also nest expect

expect FileYouSaved

spawn ssh -l UserNameHere 192.168.1.111
expect Password:
send PassWord\n
interact


Note:  You need the \n at the end of your password.



Good! Seems easy... but doesn't quite work. I have:

#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn ssh -l 1234 router
#expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
expect Password:
send password\n
interact


but I get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ router_ssh
spawn ssh -l 1234 router
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:


and it doesn't enter. I modify the script:

#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn ssh -l 1234 router
expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
send password\n
interact


and now I get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: invalid command name password:
while executing
password:
invoked from within
expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: 
(file /home/cer/bin/router_ssh line 3)


I escape the ' with \ and still I get:


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ router_ssh
spawn ssh -l 1234 router
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: invalid command name password:
while executing
password:
invoked from within
expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: 
(file /home/cer/bin/router_ssh line 3)


Why is it trying to execute password? That's absurd.

Ah! I got it!

expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: 



Well... now I want one step more:


#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn ssh -l 1234 router
expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: 
#expect Password:
send \n
send ping -c 5 192.168.1.12
interact



[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ router_ssh
spawn ssh -l 1234 router
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
 -


The ping command is not sent... Ah, got it!

expect [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: 
send \n
expect  -
send ping -c 5 192.168.1.12\n
interact



  THANK YOU!   :-)))


(I need the router to send pings to my PC, or this computer stops working 
- - that's another story, there is a bugzilla about it)

Re: [opensuse] How can I give the password to an ssh session on the command line?

Ignore previous odd post.

To get you started, there is autoexpect. Check the man page.
Essentially, you do your thing once and autoexpect saves what is needed
to automate it. The script usually needs editing to remove things that
are too specifc. But it does the grunt work. expect does much more than
what these simplistic automated login scripts do. It is worht checking
out. And, it is cross-platform.

I use expect all the time to do an ssh to a system, and then another ssh
to a system from there. Works every time.

Very nice. I did use things like this, time ago, to connect to a BBS 
terminal and fetch my mail package for bluewave. My script was quite 
complicated, but it did it all pretty fast. Nice to know there is a good 
for all program to do that kind of thing in linux.
