~$ sudo apt-get install sshpass

You can now use sshpass to provide the password in the command line as follows:

~$ sshpass -p 'mypasswd' ssh user_name@myserver.com -p 1600

Here, -p 1600 specifies that the SSH connection will be made on port 1600 of the server.

Server should be SSL-aware but has no certificate configured [Hint: SSLCertificateFile] ((null):0)

-
The error usually arises from one of the following issues: Missing Certificate File: The certificate file may not be located at the specified path. Ensure that the file exists and the path is correctly referenced in your SSL configuration. Incorrect SSL Configuration: There may be issues within your SSL settings. Double-check your configuration files for any errors or misconfigurations that could affect SSL functionality. If neither of these issues seems to be the problem, try the following: Update the Apache Ports Configuration: Open the /etc/apache2/ports.conf file and locate the line that reads "Listen 443". Change it to "Listen 443 http". This adjustment can help ensure that Apache correctly listens for secure connections on port 443. By addressing these points, you should be able to resolve the error effectively.
