Noninteractive executing of command through ssh or telnet

[RChalupa]

Hi, have somebody found howto execute noninteractive 1 command through ssh or telnet on brocade?

I need execute just one info command from my batch in the way as is usual in SSH : ssh -pw password user@10.10.10.10 switchshow.

On brocade ssh fails with rbash: switchshow: command not found, it works only by connecting and writing command by hand.

Also with telnet I am able execute command only interactive but not by batch.

I had not these problems on McData but with brocade I can not find solution.

Tnx

Roman

I don't know what type of system you're trying to connect from  If it's a linux box you can use an expect script to do the login and run the commands.

I'm not 100% but you could probably capture that output as well.

I am connecting from Win stations.

Now I found some ways for connecting by telnet but I prefer use ssh it´s 2009 not 1989.

I detected that If I execute command noninteractively there is different environment - I can execute pure linux commands, but after interactive connecting

I am accesing fos interpreter.

So if connect interactive there is in time of login executed fos interpreter, but in noninteractive maneer nothing and because of restricted shell,

I can not leave my directory to execute fos interpreter manually.

I have FABOS 5.3

I'm using expect and following syntax

ssh -ax admin@switch "bash --login -c \"command\""

The problem is that when you do an ssh you just enter an restricted shell and brocade sets its environment variables in the login shell so you force bash into a login shell.

I have tried using ssh key authentication but had some problems don't remember them, but I figured expect might be just as good.

Can anyone verify this works on 6.x versions of FABOS BTW

Tnx a lot, it's exact I'm finding.

It works for me on v6.0.1a.

Anyone got this issue resolved.? I have tried with the previous suggested command, but no luck. The o/p is not coming.

plink.exe <IP Addr> -pw <pwd> -l admin bash -login -c 'PATH=/fabos/abin:/fabos/sbin:/fabos/bin  switchstatusshow'

Mine is on windows platform and brocade OS v6.0.xx and few v5.5.xx. PLease share some inputs
