Computer [solved] Killing 3rd command in ssh chain
Hi All,

Noob question here...

How do I kill the 3rd command in this ssh chain effectively?

Code:
#  ssh -t -t 10.80.0.5 'ssh 10.80.0.6 | /var/tmp/some_script'

The "/var/tmp/some_script" contains:
Code:
ssh 10.80.0.81 'echo "Hello World!!!!" >> /tmp/sample.txt'

The problem is that once the sample.txt completes the ssh connection is still up. I want to kill it the script after it's done.

I figured it out.

This solved it.
Code:
ssh -t -t 10.80.0.5 'ssh 10.80.0.6 | /var/tmp/vs_10.80.0.81 & sleep 2; kill %1'

what is your goal with use ssh and script by pipe?
your script "/var/tmp/some_script" is processing and then closed connection when script is finished.
after this , you cannot get any output for connection pipe and therefore your process is hanging..
