According to ssh manpage
sshpass is a utility designed for running ssh using the mode referred to as "keyboard-interactive" password authentication, but in non-inter-active mode.
ssh uses direct TTY access to make sure that the password is indeed issued by an interactive keyboard user. Sshpass runs ssh in a dedicated tty, fooling it into thinking it is getting the password from an inter-active user.
The command to run is specified after sshpassâ own options. Typically it will be "ssh" with arguments, but it can just as well be any other command. The password prompt used by ssh is, however, currently hard-coded into sshpass.
Common example of use is
# sshpass -f password.txt ssh-copy-id user@remoteserver
