I guess this is openssh question. but, while using this module, and using key based authentication. some hosts which do not have key installed (perhaps user account does not yet exist there), throws password challenge and then the ssh program wait for too long, till the process is killed by hand (I dont know but the option 'ConnectTimeout 30' does not seem to have any impact).
so how can i make this an strictly key based login? so that if key based login fails it does not try any further. pl advice. ty. Rajeev
