Re: glassfish asadmin setup-ssh non-interactive

Hi,

Try setting the --generatekey option of setup-ssh to true:

    asadmin setup-ssh --sshuser testuser --generatekey=true
    testserver.domain

If --generatekey is true, setup-ssh creates the key pair without prompting.

Note that to distribute the public key, authentication of the SSH user's
login is required. For information about how to distribute the public
key without being prompted, see the setup-ssh
<http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E18930_01/html/821-2433/setup-ssh-1.html#scrolltoc>
manual page. You can also view the content of the setup-ssh manual page
in a terminal window by typing:

    asadmin help setup-ssh

Hope this helps.
