Dunno what 'plink' is about? Never heard, however openssh ssh

'man ssh' probably has the full information. Even if this isn't a
genuine idea, there is 'ssh-keyscan' made to gather ssh public
keys for you.

I really dont get what is a ssh public key, and I really dont know how
can someone fake a SSH server which has a static IP and send me a false
host key, so I really dont need the host key for the SSH connection. I
just use SSH because this is the way I can shutdown or restart programs
runing on my remote linux server. Its just im making a script that ill
hand out for other ppl so they can fill in SSH details and just presss
a button and restart a program (never mind the name now) , so the SSH
server is changing between those people using my script and so is the
host key, thats why everyone of them need to prompt the key and it wont
be automatic..

Plink is like putty just for command line avalable on Putty's site:

So you said OpenSSH client has the option I want? ,Does it work in the
command line of windows also ? and can be used for the command line?
10x for the quick reply, and for further messages :|


IP addresses are very easy to fake.
