Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Pass Multiple Commands and Open Multiple Xterms via PSS Post 302912088 by icemanj on Tuesday 5th of August 2014 05:22:19 PM
Old 08-05-2014
Code:
xterm -e sudo bash -c "'cmd1;cmd2;ls;exec bash'"

I've also tried
Code:
pssh -i -h ectsrv -A -O StrictHostKeyChecking=no "export DISPLAY=IP address:0.0; xterm -hold bash -e "sudo /path/sap_sudo.sh 'ls;whoami;bash -l" "

Multiple times in different ways...nothing.

However, I did try this
Code:
pssh -i -v -h ectsrv -A -O StrictHostKeyChecking=no "export DISPLAY=IP.IP.IP:0.0; xterm -hold -e ls; sudo /path/sap_sudo.sh ""

and the ls command worked, but as my userid and not the SID and the title of the XTERM was labled "ls"....

Unfortunately, it will sudo, but won't LS when the ls command is at the end per the earlier command...

Please assist. Thanks for any replies..

lxterm

lxterm(1)						      General Commands Manual							 lxterm(1)

NAME

       lxterm - locale-sensitive wrapper for xterm

SYNOPSIS

       lxterm [ xterm-options ]

DESCRIPTION

       lxterm  is a wrapper around the xterm(1) program that invokes xterm, koi8rxterm(1), or uxterm(1) as appropriate, based on the user's locale
       setting.  All arguments to lxterm are passed to xterm without processing; the -class, -k8, and -u8 options should not be specified  because
       they are used by koi8rxterm and uxterm.	See the xterm manual page for more information on xterm-options.

       The locale(1) utility is used to determine the character set used by the current locale.  If the character set is UTF-8, uxterm is invoked;
       if the character set is KOI8-R, koi8rxtem is invoked; otherwise, 'plain' xterm is invoked.
