any of them can work. you just have to seperate your commands by semicolon & include all of them in quotes. somethin like this

remsh <machine> -l <account> -n "cd users; ls -l"

i hope u get it.

if it's just the matter of picking most recent file, why not run just
ls -t refresh_*
& pick last file through cut/sed/awk ?

find . -type f | while read file
do
sed 's/00001/00002/g' input.filename > tmp.filename
mv tmp.filename input.filename
done

cd dirname
find . -type f | xargs rm -f

this will clean all the files & the directory structure will remain intact.

otherwise just use cd dirname; rm -rf *

ssh $host 'cd /there ; tar -xvf install.sophos.tar;
....
