[TriLUG] security vs. services @ trilug.org

[John F Davis]

Hello

For what its worth, I can write you an expect script in 5 minutes which
will enable you to change passwords on
all machines for one user in one step.  I have a similar script which I use
on my machines.  Its no big deal.
You ssh into the machine and change your password just like you would do
manually.  Its just that expect does
all the typing.  ie. no more risk and less time.

There are scripts and tools to make that easier, but they also increase
the security risk. We're trying to maintain a balance between services,
security and time to manage it.
