redhat 8 and sshpass availability
by edwardsmarkf from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4Y3MW)
hello -
I noticed that sshpass is not [yet?] available on rh-8 using dnf/yum.
To install, I followed these instructions
Code:dnf --assumeyes install wget gcc gcc-c++ libgcc ;
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/sshpass/files/latest/download -O sshpass.tar.gz ;
tar -xvf *.gz ;
cd ./sshpass* ;
./configure ;
make ;
make install ;
/usr/local/bin/sshpass -V ; ## 1.06any opinions on this? any thoughts on why sshpass is not available, other than the obvious security issues?
