No, I can't edit another user's profile. Actually I can since I'm root, but since the DBAs use it whenever they log on they'll be, well, rather "unsettled" if I change their logins for my use.
Thanks Derek. Unfortunately neither of your options worked. The "su" prompted me for a password, the sudo command still gave me the interactive menu (because of the -i). But I appreciate your feedback none-the-less.
I did figure it out, just this morning after bashing my head last night:
Code:
ssh -t host sudo -u oracle script.bash
I was so close. What I had to do was to put all the environment variables (to get the stuff that the -i provided), such as sourcing the Oracle environments inside MY bash script instead of using their bash.profile. It works.
I'd like to get out of having the script run on the Oracle server, but instead pass all this TO the Oracle server from my source server (the one I'm ssh'ing from), but I know how to to that.
Thanks for the help guys, I do appreciate it!

Hi there,
It might seem tricky, I confess.
We use sudo to allow people to initiate priviledged commands (but not all commands) on our Unix systems.
To by pass this, some people initiate the sudo su - command ;

QUESTION #1:
I have this in my .bashrc file:
alias rm='rm -i'
Problem is, there are 3 files that I remove many times a day and would like this command to ignore these 3 files. In other words, prompt me on everything EXCEPT these 3 files.
Is this possible?

ssh-copy-id
SSH-COPY-ID(1) General Commands Manual SSH-COPY-ID(1)NAME
ssh-copy-id - install your public key in a remote machine's authorized_keys
SYNOPSIS
ssh-copy-id [-i [identity_file]] [user@]machine
DESCRIPTION
ssh-copy-id is a script that uses ssh to log into a remote machine and append the indicated identity file to that machine's ~/.ssh/autho-
rized_keys file.
If the -i option is given then the identity file (defaults to ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) is used, regardless of whether there are any keys in your
ssh-agent. Otherwise, if this:
ssh-add -L
provides any output, it uses that in preference to the identity file.
If the -i option is used, or the ssh-add produced no output, then it uses the contents of the identity file. Once it has one or more fin-
gerprints (by whatever means) it uses ssh to append them to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote machine (creating the file, and directory,
if necessary.)
NOTES
This program does not modify the permissions of any pre-existing files or directories. Therefore, if the remote sshd has StrictModes set in
its configuration, then the user's home, ~/.ssh folder, and ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file may need to have group writability disabled manu-
ally, e.g. via
chmod go-w ~ ~/.ssh ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
on the remote machine.
