Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Piped output from SSH tunnel hangs? Post 302514309 by whbos on Friday 15th of April 2011 11:14:51 AM

Thanks for your response. As I understand, the option '-N' makes it that ssh doesn't expect input. From the man page :

-N Do not execute a remote command. This is useful for just forwarding ports (protocol version 2 only).

In my script, I first use `ssh -Nf -Llocalhost:22000:server:22 proxy` to create the tunnel, then it executes sftp to upload files.

Regards,
Willem.
