Keyless auto login SSH script
keys less login has been easy always with ssh keygen and copy-id, but just a small bash loop will help auto login on disconnections. Key-less auto login SSH simple script, but helped me to make one of my team mates switch to GNU/Linux.
Simple script :
# Read the hostname and username for SSH login. read -p "Enter your hostname/ip :" host_name read -p "Enter your login name :" login_name # Generate RSA key. echo Generating RSA keys ssh-keygen -t rsa # Copy the generated key. echo Copying keys to ${host_name} ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa ${login_name}@${host_name} # Add a function to ~/.bashrc. cat >> ~/.bashrc << EOF function assh(){ while true; do ssh ${login_name}@${host_name} ; done } EOF # exec new shell or even source the rc? bash
Just do this when you execute the script :
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/hemanth/.ssh/id_rsa): [Hit enter] Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):[Hit enter] Enter same passphrase again: [Hit enter] Your identification has been saved in /home/hemanth/.ssh/id_rsa.
GET it! Execute it and just type assh (hit enter) and stay connected forever ;)
