hi,
Actually i m trying to run a command thru java's Runtime class method exec, but that command requires another Terminal or command.exe
.................................................................................................... ..................................
Runtime t=Runtime.getRuntime();
InputStream is1 = t.exec("gnome-terminal").getInputStream();
InputStream is = t.exec("rsh 192.168.0.20").getInputStream();
.................................................................................................... .....................................

I want to execute the THIRD line in the new terminal opened by the second line of code. Because working in the same terminal doesn't work.

Kindly solve
Akhtar

My 1st question is , do you need to run the rsh command in a gnome terminal ? Could you just run the rsh command on its own in
java ? If you can't for some reason then your can try

t.exec("gnome-terminal -x rsh 192.168.0.20").getInputStream();

I also think you may be misunderstanding what happens when you call exec, here is a nice tutorial.
