[jira] [Commented] (SSHD-1268) sudo su non interactively entering a password

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-1268?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17534956#comment-17534956 ] 

Thomas Wolf commented on SSHD-1268:
-----------------------------------

We can't really help you with implementing your "prod" application. It sounds like you want to authenticate using password authentication (why you'd do that in a production system instead on publickey authentication is beyond me), then open a shell running a script that executes {{sudo su}} and then something more. So basically you'd have to examine the {{ChannelShell}}'s input and output streams and feed it the password when you see your prompt. The {{-S}} option of sudo might help.

> I would like some code examples as to how I would achieve the following.
> I have a working Non Prod use case whereby all that is required is pub/priv key authentication.
> For Prod, I need
> (a) username/password authentication - which isn't an issue. Once logged in, 
> (b) that user needs to run a "sudo su" to a permissioned account in order to continue. 
> It is (b) that is proving tricky as I need to simulate user interaction (non interactively) to enter a password upon seeing a prompt. 
>  
> I'm aware there are interfaces / classes (UserInteraction, UserAuthKeyboardInteractive) that might be able to help with this but I would appreciate some code examples if possible. 
>  
> Thanks!
