SSH

[kumsaga]

Hi ,
we have 100 servers and we have password expiration set on all of them , I have my SSH keys setup so that I can log in to any of the server with out giving password. Is there any good way of changing my password with out logging on to all the machines.
Thank you .

expect.

Here's a little sample to get you started.

send -- "passwd\r"
expect {
  -re "assword" {
  send -- "yournewpassword\r"
}

If you try some other language, one thing that is a gotcha for everyone is when you use the passwd command and it displays the New password: prompt, it is displayed to STDERR *not* STDOUT.
