Cannot sshpass router
Hi,

I am trying to use sshpass to login to my router and then execute a reboot command. But the command never executes, can someone please help me.
This doesnt work....
Code:
sshpass -p 'password' ssh 192.168.1.1 -l root -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no "sys reboot"

However if I try following then it works and shows result
Code:
 sshpass -p 'password' ssh 192.168.1.100 -l root -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no "uptime;uname -a"

then I see the system up time result.

Any ideas? Smilie

Thanks in advance.

Are you sure it does not execute? Could be it drops the line as it's booting...?

no it doesnt execute, because I tried show adsl instead of sys reboot. no joy Smilie

So show adsl works? Seems to me reboot works, then. Have the router run for a while, show its uptime, reboot, show uptime again - any difference?

Code:
show adsl

also doesnt work.

your suggestion in the other post has solved my problem, but dont know why I am feeling that the telnet session seems flakey there (can let me down anytime), therefore am looking to execute this ssh session and do a sys reboot command
