you can do either but if you want to read input from the user then -t would be required. you can also try the ssh -n option
or a better long term solution - put this in your .profile if you don't use -t
Code:
if tty -s
then
echo "blah blah blah"
read blah
fi
Code:
-n Redirects stdin from /dev/null (actually, prevents
reading from stdin). This must be used when ssh is run
in the background. A common trick is to use this to
run X11 programs on a remote machine. For example,
ssh -n shadows.cs.hut.fi emacs &
will start an emacs on shadows.cs.hut.fi, and the X11
connection will be automatically forwarded over an
encrypted channel. The ssh program will be put in the
background. This does not work if ssh needs to ask for
a password or passphrase. See also the -f option.)

Hi Team,
Thank you for your time.

Hence I am writing a script to invoke their old .profile every time they login.
My problem is : when i run . $userpath/.profile from within the ksh script... (9 Replies)
The .profile file should be read when the user logs in. So, there should be no need to execute .profile file again in a cron job (since the cron job is run after the user logs in). Doesn't the cron require login from the user. Then, from where does the cron execute? Please help!! (1 Reply)

Hello, I find out that there is a way from putty to pass a command to your shell when trying to log in to a server and bypass .profile. Actually you can do this if you open a bash shell. The command to bypass .profile is the following: ssh -t hostname "bash --noprofile" Is there a way to... (32 Replies)

ssh-argv0
SSH-ARGV0(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ARGV0(1)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
See ssh(1).
FILES
