C library for SSH

[Manimaran Subbaraj]

Scott, 
   
Thanks for your suggestion. In my case, now that SSH
implementation is complete and I don't have the root
privilage I won't be able to implement the same.

What Iam looking for is, passing SSH password as an
argument when making a SSH connection. The application
making the SSH connection need to remain
non-interactive.

The application may run from any client (that resides
in a seperate NIS/NFS domain) and need to communicate
with the server with proper authentication. In this
case the SSH password.
