Re: ssh - How to create a command to send output to the ssh client

Yes, the command (CMDA) that I'm trying to run is a OS/400 command.
Yes, I'm running the command via ssh. Using putty on my pc as the ssh
client to run the CMDA command on iseries.

When I sent the following command from my PC's ssh client to iseries:
System "DSPNETA"
I get the iseries Network attribute info on my PC command prompt screen
without problem.


But when I sent the following command from my PC ssh client to iseries
System "CMDA"
I'm not getting anything thing on my PC command prompt.

Lim,

In the environment that ssh was designed for (Unix) there's no
difference between a cmd and a program. Your message therefore

confuses

me greatly. How can you have a CMDA with PGMA as a command processor?

That doesn't sound like Unix, that sounds like OS/400!

How do you run an OS/400 command via SSH?

I'm lost.

Is there a reason you didn't design your tool to be used from a Unix
environment? If it's intended to be run from SSH, that seems like the

way to go...

Hello Scott,
Here is what I did:
1) Created PGMA on the host that send result to the stdout.
2) Created command CMDA with PGMA as the command processor on the

host.

3) On my PC, I use the Putty software to run the remote CMDA

command:

system "CMDA". ==> I'm not see the result that PGMA send to the

stdout

on my PC screen. Any idea why?
