Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Please Help: How to Call SSH Trust from Cron job. Post 302267865 by Lakris on Sunday 14th of December 2008 09:44:20 AM

What I meant was that when You run something from the command line You a fuller set of environment variables, such as PATH. Do this experiment, put these lines in Your script:

env > /tmp/cronenv
. ~/.bashrc
env > /tmp/userenv

... (the rest of the code)

and compare the two. The first one shows the environment used by cron, the second what Your command prompt has available. You may need to include /etc/profile or some other rc-file depending on what shell You use.

Are You really calling ssh with capitals, SSH?

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
