calling user command during ssh login

linux_newbie79 · 08-25-2009, 06:47 PM

Hi,

I am running sshd in my embedded platform and succesfully connected from remote-host using ssh client.

After entering correct username and password, I want to run my own command instead of prompt in the client side. what modifications do I need to do?

Help me in this regard

Thanks in Advance

What do you mean your own command? Can you be more specific?

my application executable in /sbin and I want to execute it automatically once the ssh login is completed. This application gets the user input and does specific task.

You could copy your script to the remote system and issue:

Quote:

ssh user@host '/path/to/your/remote/script'

You could create an alias on your local system, eg my_remote_script = ssh user@host '/path/to.......'

edit: you've already solved it - I was too slow
