doing a sequence of commands in a bash script.

Hi,

I'm creating a bash script that contains the following line:
"ssh user@$server1 cd /tmp; pwd"

What I want is to print /tmp of server1, but the script it isn't printing that.

How can I do that in the script?

Thanks,

Change
Code:
"ssh user@$server1 cd /tmp; pwd"
to
Code:
ssh user@$server1 "cd /tmp; pwd"
