Auto Login

WeTTY Supports a form of auto login by passing a users password though url params.

This is not a required feature and the security implications for passing the password in the url will have to be considered by the user.

Requirements

For auto-login feature you'll need sshpass installed

• apt-get install sshpass (debian eg. Ubuntu)
• yum install sshpass (red hat flavours eg. CentOs)

Usage

You can also pass the ssh password as an optional query parameter to auto-login the user like this (Only while running WeTTY as a non root account or when specifying the ssh host):

http://yourserver:3000/wetty/ssh/<username>?pass=<password>
