Using pipe with Konsole -e
Hello,

I am attempting to create a script using kDE and bash. I need to be able ssh into a jump box and then the server then tail the log files then grep for. I have everything working cept the Grep for when using a pipe it does not run it on the server, I have removed the pipe enclosed quotes(single and double), backticks, semicolons, tried aliases. Below is the same code. I apologize as well the ' before the date and the enclosing ' should be a back tick the device i use doesn't have a back tick symbol. It needs to be as lightweight so no redirecting to an output file then tailing the filtered log. The computers cannot install additional dependencies or packages.

konsole --geometry 1272x320+0+0 -e ssh -A ipaddress ssh -A ipaddress tail -F /var/log/folder/file-'Date '+%Y%m%d''.log | grep -e words

mtail

MTAIL(1)							   User Commands							  MTAIL(1)

NAME

       mtail - tail variant designed for web developers monitoring logfiles

SYNOPSIS

       mtail [options]	<file>...

DESCRIPTION

       MonkeyTail  allows  a  user to tail multiple files on both local and remote hosts and clearly marks inactivity by putting 5 newlines in the
       output whenever a pause in output over 3 seconds is detected.

       MonkeyTail is implemented a fairly simple wrapper script around standard tail, ssh, and sudo.

OPTIONS

       -q     Quiet mode

       --quiet
	      "    "

       -n     Output the last N lines of each file before tailing (defaults to 0)

       <file>...
	      Files to tail.

	      These can specified in the following ways:

       @<groupname>
	      - expands the group (from .mtailrc) to a list of

	      files to tail

       <filename>
	      - tails a local file.

       +<filename>		- attempts to sudo and tail a local file (will
	      prompt for pwd if required).

       <remotehost>:<filename>
	      - attempts to invoke tail via ssh on a remote

	      host.

       +<remotehost>:<filename> - attempts to invoke sudo tail via ssh on a
	      remote host (will prompt for pwd if required).
