sshpass is the Non-interactive ssh password auth OpenSource project.

About

sshpass is a tool for non-interactively performing password authentication with SSH's so called "interactive keyboard password authentication". It allows supplying SSH password in command line, file, environment variable, etc.

Always be careful who can access the files where sshpass calls are stored. Most user should use SSH's more secure public key authentication instead.

Its source code can be downloaded from source forge.
