I am running Putty 0.60 from Windows XP and I am connecting to a Linux box.
I would like to be able to pass a command line parameter to my Linux session so that my Linux session can execute a specific command, depending on the command line parameter. I have looked on the Internet and tried various ways, but cannot find the answer. I have also tried setting an environment variable, but my Linux machine tells me 'Server refused to set environment variables'. So I guess there is some setting that is preventing this. Without going to my SYSADMIN to override this, is there another way to do it?
What I want to do is let's say pass -myvar varvalue
Then in Linux somehow query this parameter.
All,

function a () { #functionality.. }
function b () { #functionnlity.. }

GETSID(2) Linux Programmer's Manual GETSID(2)NAME
getsid - get session ID
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
pid_t getsid(pid_t pid);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
getsid():
_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 || _XOPEN_SOURCE && _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
|| /* Since glibc 2.12: */ _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L
DESCRIPTION getsid(0) returns the session ID of the calling process. getsid(p) returns the session ID of the process with process ID p. (The session
ID of a process is the process group ID of the session leader.)
RETURN VALUE
On success, a session ID is returned. On error, (pid_t) -1 will be returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EPERM A process with process ID p exists, but it is not in the same session as the calling process, and the implementation considers this
an error.
ESRCH No process with process ID p was found.
VERSIONS
This system call is available on Linux since version 2.0.
CONFORMING TO
SVr4, POSIX.1-2001.
NOTES
Linux does not return EPERM.
