I don't think you can do it like that.

I'm a little rusty but looking at my old scripts I called SSH or SCP everytime I wanted to do one thing.

print "scp $USER@$HOSTNAME:$PWD/$5 $4@$server:/tmp/$5"
scp $USER@$HOSTNAME:$PWD/$5 $4@$server:/tmp/$5
print "chmod 700 /tmp/$5"
ssh -l $4 $server chmod 700 /tmp/$5
print "ssh -l $3 $1 pdadmin -a <user>/tmp/$5"
ssh -l $4 $server /usr/bin/pdadmin -a <user>-p $PASSWORD /tmp/$5
print "ssh -l $4 $server rm /tmp/$5"
ssh -l $4 $server rm /tmp/$5


I'm not sure the connection will stay open. Maybe try running commands like this but I don't know.

ssh -l user myserver chmod 700 /tmp/$5; ls -lrt; date; uptime;

Hope this helps.

gnome-ssh-askpass

GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)					      General Commands Manual					      GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)

NAME

       gnome-ssh-askpass - prompts a user for a passphrase using GNOME

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-ssh-askpass

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-ssh-askpass  is  a GNOME-based passphrase dialog for use with OpenSSH.  It is intended to be called by the ssh-add(1) program and not
       invoked directly.  It allows ssh-add(1) to obtain a passphrase from a user, even if not connected to a terminal (assuming that an X display
       is  available).	This happens automatically in the case where ssh-add is invoked from one's ~/.xsession or as one of the GNOME startup pro-
       grams, for example.

       In order to be called automatically by ssh-add, gnome-ssh-askpass should be installed as /usr/bin/ssh-askpass.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following environment variables are recognized:

       GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_SERVER
	      Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the X server before asking for a passphrase.

       GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_POINTER
	      Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the mouse pointer using gdk_pointer_grab() before asking for a passphrase.

       Regardless of whether either of these environment variables is set, gnome-ssh-askpass will grab the keyboard using gdk_keyboard_grab().

       This manual page was written by Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> for the Debian system (but may be used by others).  It was based on that
