prevent ssh from executing result in shell

Hi,

I am writing a script on Solaris 10 and want to execute a remote ssh command. Normally this command should just return the value 0000000000002356 but when using ssh it seems it is passing the result to the shell to execute.

Code:
ssh root@10.5.112.145 `/usr/bin/nawk -F\, '$1=="USG" && $2=="01" && $3=="20" && $4=="2010" { print $11 }' /var/log/usage/lic.log | sort -rn | head -1`
sh: 0000000000002356: not found

I have tried various backticks and quotes to escape this but can't. Ssh here documents dont seem to work on Solaris...

Code:
bash-3.00# ssh root@10.5.112.145 <<EOF /usr/bin/nawk -F\, '$1=="USG" && $2=="01" && $3=="20" && $4=="2010" { print $11 }' /var/log/usage/lic.log | sort -rn | head -1 EOF

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
