Any way to pass a password (on command line) in SSH? Sure you can use the ssh-keygen and set up public and private keys and all that. Problem is, in batch mode something can go wrong. You might not have the entry in the hosts file, or something. And then your batch program will freeze waiting for a password or human response to type "yes". It would be good to do like ssh -l login -p password blah blah blah,
Dangereous! Somebody calling "ps -eaf" could see this password!
but I can't figure out how. A second question (acutally alternative). Any other way to do this: ssh -l login host cmd That is, execute a command on a remote host, other than ssh? Might be an alternative.
