如何在bash脚本命令中提供2个输入？

Question

I am trying to mount a remote folder on to my computer using sshfs. my bash script is as follows:

sudo sshfs -o allow_other id@afs1.domain.com:/ /home/kr1shna/remote -o password_stdin <<<"xxxxxx"

and everytime i execute this, it prompts me for the root password.

so i tried:

echo "rootpassword" | sudo -S sshfs -o allow_other id@afs1.domain.com:/ /home/kr1shna/remote -o password_stdin <<<"xxxxxx"

I know its not a good habit to echo my root password, but I'm the only one who uses this computer.

In what way can I provide the root password and the other password parameter in the bash script?

Thank you.

Answer 1

Try defining the values you want to pass to a command.

For example

password="$(echo 'HelloWorld!')";
echo "Your password is $password";

In your case, it would be:

password="$(echo 'xxxxx')"
sudo sshfs -o allow_other id@afs1.domain.com:/ /home/kr1shna/remote -p $password

And I know you're probably getting annoyed with us all telling you to not do this, but this really does pose a potential security flaw to your server. I would highly recommend against doing this.

Answer 2

Why not generate the ssh pub keys and login ssh without inputting password. Lots of distributed clusters do it this way.
