How to invoke user env. on remote server
I am tryying to ssh remote machine from a script to run a program for a particular user but it is not bringing up the user environment on remote machine. I was wondering if some one tells me what is the command I should put in the script which will invoke user env on the remote server before ssh is executed. I tried . ${HOME}/.profile but did not work.

Thanks

is there a file in which all the user env are stores or you want to load PATH variable.

Please expand a bit on your problem statement and on which command you are not able to execute

SSH works fine on command line but when i use same ssh -t ... command in a script , it complains about the "variable not defined" on the remote machine. It is not bringing up the remote environment for the user when invoked ssh within script.So what should I use in the script , so that user environment is invoked before ssh is executed
