Hello, I have tried to look this up in the archives before posting but I can not connect to the news server at gmane. I hope you can help, or perhaps point me to documentation somewhere...
I have a filesystem on an aix box that must be pushed periodically to several unix boxes (over 100) and the directive from our unix admins is to use rsync, which can use ssh to perform the transfer. I would like some opinions about the best way this should be done. I have written a korn shell script that uses a loop to execute the rsync command against a list of hostnames. This works fine, but for one inconvenience: The user must enter the password for every box that is in the list. It is the same password in most cases, but this is simply not acceptable. Is there a better way to do this with rsync? Anyone have thoughts about this?
