Quote:

#!/bin/bash

#copying files from local machine to remote server by scp
scp -r /useradd.sh user@172.29.16.19:/home/user

# Second step making ssh login for executing the script on remote server
ssh@172.29.16.19

# switching user account
su - root (script should run as root)
echo "password"

./home/user/useradd.sh (executing the script)

Thanks in advance.

In cases where something doesn't work according to your expectations, it is necessary to tell us what your expectations are. Otherwise, we read the code, observe what it says, and either see that it can't do anything, or see what it does do. If it does something, we can only guess what your intentions were, and there is a vast universe of possibilities for what that might be. Without enough information, I might interpret your intentions incorrectly, and suggest that you need to do something like adding
