I'm using cygwin and Win32::GuiTest to automate some windows testing of
CIFS client network behaviour.

Part of what is being tested is connecting to remote shares.

However :-) an ssh client login (even with a password) doesn't seem to
have the right domain credentials, so that a password prompt is
presented when a connection is made.

If the test software is run directly from the desktop, then the right
credentials are already present as part of the login, and the connection
is made without asking for a password.

How can I cause the ssh login to have these credentials so that it does
not prompt for a password?
Thanks

Sam
