I have a colleague who has set up pass phrases/keys using ssh-keygen. He would like to write a script that uses ssh to read a read-only file containing the passphrases so that the script can be automated (as in a cronjob running in the middle of the night, and no one is awake to enter passphrase). Is this possible? He mentioned adding them using ssh -add, but this is not secure.
I'm including a closed thread that looked helpful at first, but I'm not sure if this would help.
