I know ssh is to create a secure shell connection to a machine, and we call ssh username@ip_address
to login the machine.
Is there a way that I won't need to enter the password when connecting via SSH, or let's say SCP, or a run a command using SSH on a remote machine?
I know there are ssh-keys, which allow particular users to login without entering passwords.
Is there any other way to achieve so, which doesn't involve keys? Like some change in the ssh configuration?
2Why are you opposed to using keys? That's the obvious solution, that's been in use and is tested and works. – Rob – 2011-11-08T17:36:19.687
