pgrep is not available everywhere, but yes you can use pgrep if available... The purpose of this article was ssh, not process listings. Please see my article which covers pgrep.

How about replacing

ssh root@www ‘ps -ef | grep apache | grep -v grep | wc -l’

with pgrep -c apache

vikrant,

Are you provided ANY access to the server? If so, what? If not, this is not possible.

Ian,

When you login, your profile and rc scripts are called. You can call them in your script, to setup your environment. Or better yet, remove any dependencies on the environment being setup.

SSH with and without command gives different results? env is different?

[a ~]$ ssh 172.24.40.100
Last login: Mon Jan 1 06:07:24 2001 from 172.24.41.78
[b ~]# /path/script.sh
# works as expected

[a ~]$ ssh 172.24.40.100 /path/script.sh
# gives me error consistent with env setup

Which implies the latter is running the script.sh on host a, when I want to ‘launch’ in from a, and ‘run’ it on b!?

Hello Manoj,

To stop some user to execute any command on a server (using SSH) you simply need to disable the sshd (ssh daemon) so that server. This way neither your server would be listening those remote SSH requests nor it would be processing them.

Simple!

I would like to make a remote installation via ssh, for instance:

neidisch@server1# ssh root@server2 /tmp/mysoftware/install

it actually would work fine. except for the license that I have to agree: it’s displayed with “more” and can’t break it.

if I use “ssh -n” it would work, but then I wouldn’t be able to pass my configuration values.

can anyone help me?
