How to configure jenkins to give password while executing shell script in remote server

Question

I have a shell script to do deployment on a remote server. But I didn't have full root privileges for that server and it asks password for every steps (4-5 times while executing the script).

Now, I want to run the shell script using Jenkins. How to configure jenkins to give the password while executing the shell script in remote server.

Thanks in advance

Wrong way 'round. Change the server to allow key access and give Jenkins the key. — stark, Sep 13 '22 at 10:54
@stark Sorry, I t is a legacy server and I don't think management will agree to this approach. — sairohith naredla, Sep 13 '22 at 11:03
Which commands you are running as a part of that script? Are you using any `sudo` commands? — Niraj Nandane, Sep 13 '22 at 12:01
You can add below in /etc/sudoers file on server where you are running script. USER ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL — Niraj Nandane, Sep 13 '22 at 12:16
Replace USER with the actual user name which is running the script. — Niraj Nandane, Sep 13 '22 at 12:16

Add myuser ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL in /etc/sudoers.

Note: Replace myuser with your actual username.
