[Tutor] pexpect/pxssh

[Vinay Reddy]

Hi,
I wish to automate some of my network related tasks, which involves
sshing into a remote box and executing some commands. I looked at
pxssh for that purpose but it seems to throw an exception when I have
ssh keys setup so that logins can happen without explicit password
authentication.

Is there a way to use pxssh (or some other tool) to just ssh in if
keys are setup correctly, else fallback to password based
authentication.

Thanks,
Vinay
