passwordless login into avocent

Post #1 of 4 (2603 views)

Hi All:

Request here is that I need to login into avocent ACS600 without a passwd.

Here is the setup:

[1] conserver client have an ID setup: consoleuser

[2] On avocent setup ssh whereby the consoleuser can login without passwd

[3] From conserver client when i login it asks for a login/passwd

[consoleuser@ca-console ~]$ console ca-5op325-0-swi-1
[Enter `^Ec?' for help]

login:

[consoleuser@ca-console ~]$ echo $USER
consoleuser

I do not want the above login/passwd instead connect directly to the
device (ca-5op325-0-swi-1)

Here is the conserver.cf file:

[root@ca-conserver etc]# more /etc/conserver.cf
#
#### set up default for all consoles
default * { logfile /salog/console/& ; rw * ; }

# trust only this VM to grant access
access * { trusted 10.211.9.219, 10.211.9.209, 10.211.17.26; }

The "login:" prompt you are seeing is from the ACS6000 (the connection to ports 7000+) or the device attached to the serial port. Your set up is not having conserver ask for a password.

I'm not familiar with the device, but a lot of times you can configure the ports to not require a password. Or, if you must have one, you can tell conserver to run a script to interact with it and get passed the login (look at the initcmd option). If the "login:" is a unix machine or something, then, well, I wouldn't suggest logging into that automatically. ;-)

Look at the port configurations, you want "unauthenticated telnet", and I suggest limiting the port to one connection at a time (since conserved will hold that connection all time).
