Hi Guys!

I am trying to write a shell script for automated ssh. vairable user and passwd have initialized correctly, but when I use the following it still prompting me for the password.

#!/usr/bin/bash

user='root@10.14.76.225'
passwd='admin'

ssh $user
$passwd
uptime
exit

I have also tried the following

ssh $user < $passwd
uptime
exit
EOF

and no luck. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Best way to automate ssh connection is making trusted relantionships between the machines. Search google for authorized_keys :slight_smile:
