Re: [MLUG] One Command to Server Via SSH

["A. Freed" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

ssh, like rsh, will accept commands, e.g.

ssh marinduque ls

will prompt you for your password on Marinduque, then run the ls command (or
whatever command you want) and then exit, returning you to the prompt on the
host from which you originally logged in.

You might want to start your dialup process as a daemon, e.g., use the "&"
to put it into the background as in

ssh marinduque ls &


NOTE:  You will need a decent implementation of ssh.

Search for

    putty (Public domain ssh and sshd for Windows.)

or
    cygwin (http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/)

The latter is actually a pretty thorough implementation of the Unix/Linux
command line for Windows.  It does include such niceties and VI and
SSH/SSHD.
