Batch script to log in SSH server on Windows

Question

I'm trying to make a batch script to log in into a SSH server and execute a few commands. The start command is:

plink -ssh [email protected]

Then I need to enter the User Name and Password like the image:

ssh

If I have the 'User Name' and 'Password' in two variables, how do I use them when it asks me for?

[EDIT]

last try was this:

(echo username
echo mypassword) | plink -ssh [email protected]

Output:

User Name:username
mypassword
Password:

The batch didn't "pressed" enter after inputing the username.

Try

plink -ssh -l $USER -pw $PASSWD

after setting environment variables

set USER=name
set PASSWD=secret

I have to enter two logins and one password. In my case I am passing the first login (the SSH 'login as') before the ip (user@IP). It's like an extra login.

I don't really understand. On the server side you normally have a user account username where you want to login per ssh, so I would assume you just should plink -ssh -l $USER -pw $PASSWD ipaddress?!

Lets suppose I have to login twice. First the SSH login then the "system" login. The SSH login is fine because I only need the username (no password required). This is not about SSH, this is about auto inputing data.

I see, you have to solve it on server side then. You might want to have a look at expect.
