Catchy title for a boring task. I've been tasked to collect patch status reports for over a minimum of 120 linux servers and change the support password that we used to login. And you're not allowed to use key-based authentication for ssh in order to log myself in each and one of the servers.
Deploying my public over a minimum of 120 linux servers is a pain. I've heard about expect from a friend who told me that you could automate almost everything with expect. From spawning the initial ssh session to the password input. Is that cool or is that cool.
