I need to login to a user that I've created on a remote host running Ubuntu. I can't use an ssh key because the ssh login will happen from a bash script ran within a server that I won't have access to (think continuous integration server like Bamboo). I understand this isn't an ideal practice, but I want to either set the remote host to not ask for the password or be able to login with something like ssh --passsword foobar user@host, kind of like MySQL allows you to do for logins. I'm not finding this in man ssh and  I'm open to any alternatives to getting around this issue.
SSH login with clear text password as a parameter?
