[ale] Command name

[Dennis Ruzeski]

Expect is what you want-- ssh won't take input from redirected stdin.

Here's some things that won't work-

$echo 'password' |ssh username at hostname

Variations on a script-
#!/bin/bash
ssh username at host << EOF
password
EOF

While expect will do this, a cleaner and more secure way to set this up is
with shared key authentication.
