Hi Gurus,

Thanks a lot who are trying to help me

Below are the requirement

I have 20 Machines in site A
I have 1 Machine (i will call it machine1) in site B

In site A we have around 40 Users

users in site A has to be connect to site B machine1 (using always user1) in shell script from all 20 Machines from site A.

We can do password less authentication but my case 20 Machines and 40 different users

expect is the right way ? but I want to run shell script also

How to done this?

You do this by writing a shell script and/or an expect script. Can you post what you've done/tried so far? See the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature...we are happy to help, but we aren't going to write scripts for you.

And your 'requirement' makes little sense. You say you have 40 users, who need to connect to another machine...all with the same user id, through a shell script. That's fine...so what's the problem? If they ALWAYS log in with "user1", then do your SSH keyswap, and tell the shell script to use it. Otherwise, just keyswap all 40 of your users from their workstations to machine1, and have your remote shell script do something like "sudo su - user1", allowing each user to log in as themselves, and assume the role of user1 at login. There is AMPLE documentation on how to write expect scripts you can easily find with a Google search. Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature.

Please explain what you're trying to accomplish, and show us what you've done so far. You may also want to message user Sagar666 on this site...I believe they have some experience with SSH. But I believe that's your other user name, isn't it?

you can use sshpass,salt or ansible.

Hi TB one,

Below is the script its just example to show where i struck

#get current directory
arg3=`pwd`
#directory path defined
path=/home/user1/a5/gen/rel/src
# Connect to remote machine and pass script arguments
sshpass -p 'abc' ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no user1@cin $arg1 $arg2 $arg3
#get total fields of directory
T_field=`echo "$path" | awk -F"/" "{ print NF }"`
a=1
b=3
#get fourth and second field number only
Fourth="$((T_field - a))"
Second="$((T_field - b))"
#get field names
F_field=`echo "$path" | cut -d'/' -f$Fourth`
S_field=`echo "$path" | cut -d'/' -f$Second`
echo "$F_field"
echo "$S_field"
echo "arg1"
#get only directories name and send to output
ls -d */ > /home/lint/
#go to each directory and do some commands
while read line
do
cd line
hg pull; hp update
cd ..
done < output

In above script its just login to remote machine and not passing arguments and not running further script. Here I need help

1. please use code tags https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...do=bbcode#code when posting your code and indent it properly for eg while loops etc
2. You call sshpass with 3 "args", but only one (arg3) is set

Hi Chrishm01

Sorry I missed it actually user gives two arguments.

Below is the script its just example to show where i struck
[code]
#!/bin/sh
#get current directory
arg3=`pwd`
#directory path defined
path=/home/user1/a5/gen/rel/src
# Connect to remote machine and pass script arguments
sshpass -p 'abc' ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no user1@cin $1 $2 $arg3
#get total fields of directory
T_field=`echo "$path" | awk -F"/" "{ print NF }"`
a=1
b=3
#get fourth and second field number only
Fourth="$((T_field - a))"
Second="$((T_field - b))"
#get field names
F_field=`echo "$path" | cut -d'/' -f$Fourth`
S_field=`echo "$path" | cut -d'/' -f$Second`
echo "$F_field"
echo "$S_field"
echo "arg1"
#get only directories name and send to output
ls -d */ > /home/lint/
#go to each directory and do some commands
while read line
do
cd line
hg pull; hp update
cd ..
done < output
[code]

Thanks a lot I got it. I kept rest script in remote machine
