These are some PowerShell snippets that I use to create and manage VMs. I am very new to PowerShell…like my first day using it…ever. These are more notes for me to remember important commands.

Test Passwordless SSH Authentication
I needed a way to test if I have a passwordless way to authenticate to another SSH system. This script is written in expect and basically attempts to ssh into the specified host. It assumes the user prompt will contain user@host.
I should also note that I wrote this with the intention of using it as a Nagios plugin for ssh checks. That is why it exists with the code of 2 (critical) or 3 (unknown) when there are problems.
