Re: [Fab-user] Multiple users and passwords

[Brandon Whaley]

That really sounds like a job for ssh keys to me, just setting up key authentication will go a long way toward uncomplicating your ssh usage.  I also wouldn't use the @hosts decorator if you're pulling in your host list dynamically.  I always recommend using the execute() function if you intend to run fabric tasks directly from Python code.

Hi all,

I want to understand if the fabric has the facility to work on multiple users and passwords .

For say, i have a requirement where i read the names of the hosts and ips from a file, later redirect it to the @hosts decorator.

The challenge for me that the hosts can be logged in via some passwords.

like

combination 1:

username:root , password:xyz

combination 2:

username:root, password:abc

combination 3:

username:ubuntu,password:ubuntu

so if one combination does not work i want my "fab" to try another combination. is this possible ?

Do we have a option for this ?

Other details
Fabric==1.10.2

Thanks,
