sshpass is not available as Cygwin package. This means that you need to build and install from source. To build sshpass on Windows (Cygwin):
$ curl -LO http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sshpass/sshpass-1.06.tar.gz
Build and install to /usr/local/bin:
$ tar xvf sshpass-1.06.tar.gz $ cd sshpass-1.06 $ ./configure $ make $ sudo make install
Which installs two files
- the executable
/usr/local/bin/sshpass - man page
/usr/local/share/man/man1/sshpass.1
Your Cygwin install needs to have the required tools: curl to download, tar to extract, and autoconf, make and gcc to build. I’ll assume reader familiarity with installing packages on Cygwin.
