I think that's only the case if you don't give it all the information
it needs, in particular the password. But Richard's example appears
to provide all the information it needs.
I do wonder, however, about all those backslashes ... I only use at
most four in a row, like this:
18:32:07 [erich at slop erich]$ ssh alpha
erich at alpha's password:
Last login: Mon Apr 7 13:23:14 2003 from slop.vhcorp.com
Fanfare!!!
You are successfully logged in to this server!!!
18:32:45 [erich at alpha erich]$ net use \* \\\\10.10.89.89\\d$ /u:user "password"
Drive J: is now connected to \\10.10.89.89\d$.
The command completed successfully.

A hacker would consider being asked to write
add x to y giving z
instead of
z = x+y
as something between an insult to his intelligence and a sin against God.
