In the case of the first command, are you running it interactively or non-interactively from, say, cron or a batch job system? If the latter is the case, you either must use passphrase-less SSH keys (insecure) or load an ssh-agent once interactively and cause all subsequent, non-interactive access to find and use that loaded agent. The keychain package might help here. OTOH, if you are indeed running the remote "date" command interactively then I have no clue....
