Mar 23, 2016 at 14:55 comment added Dave Hamilton incorrect, As others have stated you can place your settings in a file. The Password once you connected is stored on the Machine, But is encypted. You then create a simple Alias if you like and you can connect. Ill post a answer as formatting is better

Mar 23, 2016 at 14:37 comment added Jenny D Why would it be a problem that the public key is stored on another system? It's not as if it can be misused.

Mar 23, 2016 at 14:32 comment added vicdeveloper The thing, that I need to transfer many files to a remote server, but, I dnt like to that server contains my public_rsa_key, so, I need to run sometimes the script file, and inside it I need to passing the password like as argument or file way to evoid to type it any time that I will use it.
Mar 23, 2016 at 14:32 comment added MelBurslan if you are hard coding a password anywhere, the security goes out the window. Hence I believe it is your duty to convince peole who are hell bent on security to abandon using of passwords and handle authentication using authorized key pairs.

Mar 23, 2016 at 14:27 comment added vicdeveloper Could be both, but, for security reasons, it needed a custom password.
Mar 23, 2016 at 14:27 comment added ams Is using a password essential, or would an authorized key be acceptable?
