Shell script login ssh

Quick question with a quick answer, how can I make my shell script enter the login password to my remote server?
Ex.
#!/bin/sh
ssh (user)@(ip here)
(enter password)
...and so on...

In addition to using keys. it would be advisable to limit what commands can be run using
the key.
see: sshd(8): under the "AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT" section.
command="command"
Specifies that the command is executed whenever this
key is used for authentication. The command supplied
by the user (if any) is ignored. The command is run on
a pty if the client requests a pty; otherwise it is run
without a tty. If an 8-bit clean channel is required,
one must not request a pty or should specify no-pty. A
quote may be included in the command by quoting it with
a backslash. This option might be useful to restrict
certain public keys to perform just a specific
operation. An example might be a key that permits
remote backups but nothing else. Note that the client
may specify TCP/IP and/or X11 forwarding unless they
are explicitly prohibited. Note that this option
applies to shell, command or subsystem execution.

Add Password to Shell Script for ssh

Hi I'm trying to avoid creating ssh keys for this I was hoping to write it all in to applescript.
This is what I have.
I've done lots of searches, but not quite getting the right outcome.

Secure login to remote UNIX host and run a shell script

Hi I am new to JAVA. I want to login to remote UNIX host from my application secure login (SSH) and run a shell script reside that remote host. Can any one let me know the way how to do it. If possible provide the code example.

Runtime.exec with an ssh command (not really recommended).
Much better, an SSH API (JSch, which needs JZlib, from http://www.jcraft.com/ is a good one).

Run a shell script at login?

I would like to run a simple shell script each time a user logs in. Currently, I have it wrapped in an Automator executable that is included in "Login Items", but figured there must be a more elegant way? Thanks.
More info:
The problem I'm trying to solve is that of file permissions when sharing one iTunes and one iPhoto library between multiple users on one computer. The libraries are located in /Users/Shared and the apps were pointed to the relocated libraries by holding down 'Option' on startup. The problem is that work done by each user in the iTunes or iPhoto library inherits the default permission settings of that user, making any new additions to the libraries, read-only to the other users. I'm using `chmod` on login to fix it. Let me know if you know of a better way to address this. Thanks again.

I wrote a simple shell script that executes each time a user logs in (well, actually, each time I log in, coz' it's not really applicable to other users). It syncs my work and home addressbooks and iCal calendars to one another.
I named it "sync". Then I read somewhere that if you wanted to make it double-clickable (to launch it from the Finder), I appended a ".command" filename extension (so it's now named "sync.command"). I also did a chmod 755 to that file so that it had execute privileges. Depending on whether you give each user their own copy of this thing, or keep a single copy in, say, the /Users/Shared directory, you may have to play around with chmod. Whatever, just so long as the user that has just logged in has execute permissions to the file, and to the entire path to the file, you should be good.
Then, in SysPrefs > Accounts > Login Items, I added that "sync.command" file to the list. So, really the only difference is I'm not wrapping mine inside an Automator script like you are.
I had tried adding it to ~/Library/LaunchAgents and make a launchd plist for it, that would kick it off at login. But I didn't get that to work. Don't know why. But just adding the double-clickable executable unix script to the Login Items list did the trick. Whether the plist has to hang out there with it, I don't know. I still have it there, though, in case I ever get motivated to figure out what's wrong with my launchd plist file. So, if just adding it to the Login Items list doesn't do it for you, you could try making a (functional?) launchd plist for it and plopping them both in ~/Library/LaunchAgents, too. That's how I am now, and, like I said, it launches at user login as that user's process (not as a root process like the above referenced article said how login hooks worked -- although, you may want it to run as root since you want this to work with multiple users...in which case, you might want to listen to Cole and not me...).

Do the shell script have to login into Oracle Apps

I am calling the Document Processor Java API from a shell script. The problem I have that its unable to find the
xdo://PO.POXPRPOLXMLRTF.en.US/?getSource=true
file within the control file.
Is this because somewhere a shell variable needs to be set, or a login need to be made into the Oracle Apps, so this template stored in XML Publisher is accessible.
Please advise!

Another things you can do is
begin
tmp_res := apps.fnd_web_sec.CHANGE_PASSWORD('TESTUSER','changeme',false);
update fnd_user set password_date = null where user_name = 'TESTUSER'';
end;
Once you do this, when the TESTUSER logs in with the password=changeme, he/she will be redirected to the change password page.
Hope this helps,

Running shell script at startup (before login)

Objective: on the Mac side of a dual-boot Intel, I want to automate running a shell script at startup that will unmount the "Untitled" Windows partition. As a single line command, the following runs correctly when invoked manually from Terminal:
/usr/sbin/diskutil unmount force disk0s3
How can I include this script in the startup sequence?

V.K. asks: "why do you need to do this before login?" And macwiz1220 suggests including in Login Items an app created by AppleScript that launches Terminal and runs the diskutil command.
When I create and run such an app at login, I encounter problems with Terminal, which is why I thought to run an .sh script at startup. But if we can debug the problems with Terminal, then I won't have to venture into the more complex solutions offered by gbullman and Barney-15E. Terminal problems:
(1) When Terminal prefs for Settings>Shell are set this way:
(a) When the shell exits: Close the window.
(b) Prompt before closing: Never
then the result is: Terminal is launched and exits quickly, but the "Untitled" volume is not unmounted.
(2) When Terminal prefs for Settings>Shell are set this way:
(a) When the shell exits: Close the window if the shell exited cleanly
(b) Prompt before closing: Never
then again the result is: Terminal is launched and exits quickly, but the "Untitled" volume is not unmounted.
(3) When Terminal prefs for Settings>Shell are set this way:
(a) When the shell exits: Don't close the window
(b) Prompt before closing: Always
then after invoking the script, Terminal properly unmounts "Untitled" and presents a dialog: "You have 2 windows with running processes. Do you want to review these windows before quitting?" Here are the two Terminal windows:
an echo of the cmd "/usr/sbin/diskutil unmount force disk0s3" followed by a report on return: "Volume on disk0s3 force unmounted." I don't want the user to have to see this and close the window.
(ii) a fresh Terminal session, no commands entered. I also don't want the user to have to deal with this.
How can I get Terminal to properly unmount the object, and shut down without demanding user interaction?
P.S. what is an O.P.?

Test ssh -ND connection in a shell script

I use a web proxy with firefox by setting up this ssh tunnel:
ssh -ND 8080 [email protected]
Is there a shell script way (like with nc) I can test this connection?

Hi Bill,
   I don't know if I'll be able to provide all of the help I'd like to because I have to get ready to go out of town. You used Fink to install "wget", right? "wget" will do almost anything a browser will do so I can't think of a better way to test from the command line. If you don't have "wget", "curl" will do. Is that what you had in mind? You can probably do it with "telnet" but "wget" understands complex URLs which, to my taste, is an easier way to specify the port.

Need last [login, access, bind] time plugin and/or shell script

Hi Gurus,
I was wondering if anyone could share their pre-op bind plugin (and/or shell script) to store the last access time. We have a heterogeneous UNIX environment (Solaris, HP-UX, and Linux clients and Sun JES DS 5.2 on Solaris 9 as name service repository) and need to implement account suspension if the user has not logged in in the specified period.
Thanks.

Shell with SQL Script (Login authentication)

First I hava shell script(create_ydb.sh), the content is :
#!/bin/sh
sqlplus /nolog @create_ydb.sql
Then the content of the create_ydb.sql:
set verify off
PROMPT specify a password for sys as parameter 1;
DEFINE sysPassword = &1
host /ORACLE_HOME_PATH/bin/orapwd file=/ORACLE_HOME_PATH/dbs/orapwYDB password=&&sysPassword force=y
@CreateDB.sql
Then the content of the CreateDB.sql:
connect "SYS"/"&&sysPassword" as SYSDBA
The first problem is , after the user input the password for sysPassword , he is not able to change it;
so I tried to move the "input password part" to the shell script, but I don't know how to pass the
value of sysPassword to the create_ydb.sql.
The second problem is , if the user input the wrong password, how can I know that in the CreateDB.sql
so that I can stop it to run and display the error message to the user.
I hope someone can help me out, thanks ^_^

Rather use the Linux/Unix shell read command and assign the password to a standard environmental variable. The prompt command and substitution variables in SQL*Plus are limited in what can be done. There's a lot more flexibility stepping into SQL*Plus with ready-to-use environment variables.
Something like follows:
/home/billy> cat x.sh
#!/bin/sh
read -p "Enter password> " PASSWORD
sqlplus /nolog << EOF
        prompt you have entered password ${PASSWORD}
        set define on
        set verify off
        -- create a substitution var for password
        define password=${PASSWORD}
        prompt substitution variable contains &PASSWORD
        exit
EOF
/home/billy> ./x.sh
Enter password> test
you have entered password test
substitution variable contains test
/home/billy>

How do I create a package that will install a shell script?

From various sources I have made this shell script which creates a hidden admin user, starts ard and sshd.
I would like to make this a package which will run on a machine on first boot. (I'm using deploystudio to deploy ML)
It creates a hidden user called testuser1 with the password of password1
[code]# Create user record in directory services
dscl . -create /Users/testuser1
dscl . -create /Users/testuser1 RealName "testuser1"
dscl . -create /Users/testuser1 UniqueID 401
dscl . -create /Users/testuser1 PrimaryGroupID 20
dscl . -create /Users/testuser1 UserShell /bin/bash
dscl . -passwd /Users/testuser1 "password1"
# Set up a hidden home folder
dscl . -create /Users/testuser1 NFSHomeDirectory /var/testuser1
cp -R /System/Library/User\ Template/English.lproj /var/testuser1
chown -R testuser1:staff /var/testuser1
# Grant admin & ARD rights
dseditgroup -o edit -t user -a testuser1 admin
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/ki ckstart -activate -configure -access -on -users testuser1 -privs -all -restart -agent
# Tell loginwindow not to show the user

# Alternate: defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow HiddenUsersList -array testuser1
# start remote login ssh

I'm using package maker but it keeps failing. If I add it from somewhere like my Documents dir it says it will give my username the permissions instead of root. If I add it from / and make root the owner packagemaker errors probably because my user doesn't have the rights to it. I want it to copy somewhere then maybe have another script that copies to the same location and does an rm to remove the previous script so no admin details are left on the machine

Basicilly I want to roll out an image that will work with all models of macs which are comaptible with Mountain Lion. To do so I'm using deploystudio with the installESD.dmg as the image. This way it will install the relevant drivers for each model of mac. So the image should work whether it's a mac pro tower/mac mini/macbook.
Upon completetion deploystudio lets you run packages so I would like the script above to be in a package. I don't want it even to copy the script anywhere I would just like it to run the .sh file I've made if thats possible?
I'm just not sure what steps to take with packagemaker, I've never used it before.
But yeah the ultimate goal is: upon installation completetion setup hidden admin user that will have ssh and ard access.

What actions should I take after seeing this script running @ startup today? "ARDAgent\" to do shell script \"say quack\"'"

STEPS TAKEN:
Logged into Mac for first time today.
Noticed a new individual file in Directory Library ".a.text". (Settings disply hidden system file/folders)
File contained only the text "--purge".
Meta data on file directed source to bash process run @ startup.
Attached History command output.
Disabled ARD for now.
SETTINGS:
All Sharing was Off.
Firewall was set to Block All Incoming Connections.
Home network with no other active users at time.
Upgraded to Mavs 10.9.2 last night.
Do not use any file sharing or remote access into Mac.
The SSH host attempts were my old Amazon EC2 instances.
Appears to start bitcoin app and few databases.
Worth noting I've been having tons of various issues last few months.
Thanks.

I'm extremely unclear on exactly what's happening. You mention something about a script running at startup in your subject, but then never mention that again. What's going on there? Where are you finding that script?
That script would suggest someone playing a joke on you, by making your computer say "quack" every time you start up. That's not indicative of malware.
On the other hand, a hidden file as you describe is a common malware trick, though I'm not sure why it would only contain "--purge" - that isn't a complete command, as far as I know, and the purge command isn't likely to be used for malicious purposes anyway.
Still, you do have some indication that you're using Bitcoin-related apps, and there has been some Bitcoin malware that has appeared recently. See:
New CoinThief malware discovered
Note that the post on MacRumors that you refer to in your second post is almost six years old, and references a vulnerability that was closed later in 2008. It's completely irrelevant to any modern system.

Encrypting password in shell script on Solaris 10.

Hi,
I have a shell script & in that the username & password is specified. I can see the password. Is there any way to encrpyt password in Unix scripts on solaris 10 box.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
Tejas

Here are some examples of avoiding passwords in scripts.
First, if it's a script that needs to use remote login, you could set up ssh keys in the authorized_keys file of the remote system to allow auto-authentication.
As a more general example, you could create a shell function that prompts for the password and stores it in an environment variable to be used by the script or utility that you want to use. Here is an example that we use in our Red Hat systems to allow yum to tunnel through our http proxy:
function yumproxy(){
    echo -n "Enter Proxy Username: "
    read -e username
    echo -n "Enter Proxy Password: "
    read -es password
    echo
    export http_proxy="http://$username:$password@ourproxyserver:8080/"
}This is in .bashrc so that we can run it once just before running any yum commands (not that this means anything in a Solaris forum!)

Terminal starts the last shell script

Hello,
I have problem with Terminal. It should start with normal shell prompt, but in my case it starts with the script I called the last time.
How it happened: I have created shell script called "logintoserver.sh", there is just "#!/bin/bash; ssh -Y -l someuser someserver". I have a link to this script on my desktop, so I can easily pop up a terminal session to my remote server.
OK, this works, but when I call application Terminal directly then, from Finder/Applications/Utilities/Terminal, it starts that "logintoserver" script again. Now I cannot get my local shell prompt. I can only follow login script and then ssh to my emac back from that remote server, but it's not that nice, you see...
I changed shell in Terminal preferences, no help. I believe there is some option "execute last command at the beginning of new session", but I can't find and disable it. When I delete this "logintoserver" script, all works OK. But I like to have one click login window.
Thanks for any kick,
David

Hi Tim,
thanks for your helpful info. Two questions:
when I login to my remote server (Tiger Server) via SSH, the command line on my laptop changes to reflect the server name Im logging into.
1. Laptop named "jimmydeuce" logs into 'margaritaserver' a Tiger Server via SSH
2. laptop closes SSH session to server
2. laptop now launches Terminal
3. laptop now sees prompt line restated as: margaritaserver:~ username$
how to get back to normal prompt: jimmydeuce:~ username$ ???
Cheers,
Chris Chamberlain

Shell Script Adapter - what kind of sudo privilege needed?

Hi All,
I have a requirement in my project where I need to manage unix user provisioning and de-provisioning by using shell scripts in AIX servers. For this purpose, I selected Shellscript adapter as it allows us to execute scripts that run on the resource.
1. while I have account in the AIX server, I need to know what kind of sudo privilege is needed. Will I need sudo access to root? if yes, does it mean, I (or my account) should be added to root? please let me know.
2. also, I tried configuring the adapter using the login id, host, password, login shell prompt, port and SSH. When i tried to test the configuration, it gave the following error,
Test connection failed for resource(s):
Shell Script: Failed to find 'useradd' in the path '/usr/bin /etc /usr/sbin /usr/ucb /home/eumusr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /sbin . /usr/local/bin' Shell Script: Failed to find 'usermod' in the path '/usr/bin /etc /usr/sbin /usr/ucb /home/eumusr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /sbin . /usr/local/bin' Shell Script: Failed to find 'userdel' in the path '/usr/bin /etc /usr/sbin /usr/ucb /home/eumusr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /sbin . /usr/local/bin' Shell Script: Failed to find 'groupadd' in the path '/usr/bin /etc /usr/sbin /usr/ucb /home/eumusr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /sbin . /usr/local/bin' Shell Script: Failed to find 'groupmod' in the path '/usr/bin /etc /usr/sbin /usr/ucb /home/eumusr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /sbin . /usr/local/bin' Shell Script: Failed to find 'groupdel' in the path '/usr/bin /etc /usr/sbin /usr/ucb /home/eumusr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /sbin . /usr/local/bin'
I am wondering why should it search for these commands? please let me know.
thanks.

Hi All,
I got this issue resolved after a fine-grained sudo setting to the account that is used for provisioning.
The revised sudo setting was able to do all the provisioning tasks without having a root access.
This is what I set on my service account
(root) /bin/awk, /bin/cat, /bin/cp, /bin/cut, /bin/grep, /bin/login, /bin/mv, /bin/rm, /usr/bin/auths, /usr/bin/cat, /usr/bin/chgroup, /usr/bin/chgrpmem, /usr/bin/chsec, /usr/bin/chsh, /usr/bin/chuser, /usr/bin/cp, /usr/bin/last, /usr/bin/lastlog, /usr/bin/listusers, /usr/bin/logins, /usr/bin/lssec, /usr/bin/mkgroup, /usr/bin/mkuser, /usr/bin/mv, /usr/bin/passwd, /usr/bin/profiles, /usr/bin/pwdadm, /usr/bin/rm, /usr/bin/roles, /usr/sbin/groupadd, /usr/sbin/groupdel, /usr/sbin/groupmod, /usr/sbin/lsgroup, /usr/sbin/lsuser, /usr/sbin/rmgroup, /usr/sbin/rmuser, /usr/sbin/useradd, /usr/sbin/userdel, /usr/sbin/usermod, /usr/sbin/logins
(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/chgrp, /usr/bin/chmod, /usr/bin/chown, /usr/bin/chpasswd, /usr/bin/cp
In this way, you need not have to be a root user to perform provisioning using AIX.
Hope this helps!!
thanks.
