Execute script located on a remote machine
So, is there way of automating this ?
My ultimate goal is to run some cmd script in windows and it should connect to a remote unix host and run a script x.sh located on the remote unix host. I was wanting to achieve this by using WinSCP and Putty only. If possible let me know how and if not then what is the minimum number of tools I can use to achieve this and how. |

Hi, You could do this a number of ways, rsh, ssh are just a couple pf examples. Code:
davem@darkstar--> rsh polaris ls -l [davem@polaris shm]# ls -l total 281392 -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 5668387 2006-12-29 20:04 ACFTREF -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 85970 2001-08-08 13:47 ardata.pdf -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 44619 2006-11-17 09:58 ARData.pdf -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 6937444 2006-12-29 20:05 DEALER -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 33477137 2006-12-29 20:11 DEREG -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 9939544 2012-07-04 21:01 dereg_wrk01 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 9619084 2012-07-04 21:01 dereg_wrk02 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 240392 2012-07-04 21:01 dereg_wrk03 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 240392 2012-07-04 21:01 dereg_wrk04 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 10099868 2012-07-04 21:01 dereg_wrk05 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4370327 2012-07-04 21:01 dereg_wrk06 -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 5247997 2006-12-29 17:30 DOCINDEX -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 183409 2006-12-29 20:05 ENGINE -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 39799 2000-07-06 14:19 format.pdf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1946 2012-07-05 07:52 input_file_list -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 100457929 2006-12-29 20:10 MASTER -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 12132352 2012-07-05 08:21 mast_wrk00 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 2012-07-05 08:20 mast_wrk01 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 18716339 2012-07-05 08:20 mast_wrk02 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 43883632 2012-07-05 08:21 mast_wrk03 -rw-rw-r--. 1 davem davem 12771975 2012-07-04 16:21 new.csv -rw-rw-r--. 1 davem davem 1093330 2012-07-04 16:52 nomatch -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2101362 2012-07-05 08:21 ref_wrk00 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 2012-07-05 07:52 ref_wrk01 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2099001 2012-07-05 08:20 ref_wrk02 -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root root 7453821 2006-12-29 20:04 RESERVED -rw-rw-r--. 1 davem davem 775151 2012-07-04 16:19 wrong.csv [davem@polaris shm] You just have to make sure the correct configs are set up - and that there is some reasonable degree of security in place.

As you want to do this from a Windows box using PuTTY, you need to look at Plink. This is a tool called from the Windows shell (DOS Prompt) and can be used like ssh. It is especially useful for running a ssh command on a remote *nix server from a Windows PowerShell or batch script.
It should already be installed as part of the default PuTTY installation, or it can be downloaded from the PuTTY website as a standalone executable. |

So I am just looking for having to execute a single command .cmd from windows to do the above jobs for me. ---------- Post updated at 04:18 AM ---------- Previous update was at 03:53 AM ---------- I tried the below command but strangely it fails. Code:
plink user1@remotehostip -m local_script.sh -v .... .... Password: Access granted Opened channel for session Started a shell/command mv: cannot stat `/tmp/folderwow1'Server sent command exit status 1 Disconnected: All channels closed : No such file or directory When i execute the same mv command from Putty after login in it succeeds. the command in local_script.sh is Code:
mv /tmp/folderwow1 /tmp/foldermohtashim The only difference i saw which may not be concerning here is that loggin throught putty asked me for the password of user1 twice while plink command via windows asked for the password just once. Kindly help. |

I don't have enough Windows scripting experience to give a definitive answer, but I would suggest that first of all, you use Pageant to manage keys to access the remote *nix servers. Also make sure the PuTTY directory is added to your PATH. you then use PSCP to copy the script to the remote host: Code:
pscp -agent \path\to\source\file user@remotehost:/path/to/target Then you use Plink to make it executable and run the script: Code:
plink -agent user@remotehost "chmod +x /path/to/script; sh /path/to/script" You could probably wrap this in a Windows batch script, but I'm not sure how to make that completely robust. |

 You command: Code:
C:\Program Files\PuTTY>plink -agent user1@remorthost "chmod +x /export/home/test.sh; sh /export/home/test.sh" -v yields the below output: Code:
Using keyboard-interactive authentication. Password: chmod: cannot access `/export/home/test.sh': No such file or directory sh: /export/home/ms104u/test.sh: No such file or directory But the file exists: Code:
ls -ltr /export/home/test.sh -rwxr-xr-x 1 user1 vts 22 Jul 4 09:50 /export/home/test.sh |
