Re: Remote Execution of Scripts
One possible solution to this is to create an RSA key with no passphrase.
Then you put the key in the remote servers authorized_keys file for
the proper user account.
man 1 ssh
man 8 sshd
man 1 ssh-keygen
If your goal is to keep files syncronized across the network take a look
at rsync, http://rsync.samba.org/.
