Objective: SSH login ( + eliminate warning message) / run 2 commands / stay logged in:
EDIT: Oops, I made a mistake (see below):
This code does ~95% of what I wanted to do
# .bashrc
# Run two commands and stay logged in to new server.
alias gr='ssh -t -p 5xx4x root@9x.1xx.51.00 2> /dev/null "cd /var; ls; /bin/bash -i"'
Now, after successful login / verify user logged in =
root pts/0 2011-01-30 22:09
Try to 'logout' =
bash: logout: not login shell: use
`exit'
I seem to have full root access w/o being logged into the shell? (The " /bin/bash -i " was added to 'Stay logged in' but doesn't work quite as expected)
FYI: The question is "How to get this SSH login working" & it is mostly solved, sorry I made a mess…

Original Question Here:
# .bashrc
# Run two commands and stay logged in to new server.
alias gr='ssh -t -p 5xx4x root@9x.1xx.51.00 "cd /var; ls; /bin/bash -i"'
# (hack) Hide "map back to the address - POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!" message.
alias gr='ssh -p 5xx4x root@9x.1xx.51.00 2> /dev/null'
Both examples 'work' as shown; When I try to add the ' 2> /dev/null ' to the first example, then the whole thing breaks.
- I'm out of time trying to solve the
warning message other ways, so is it
possible to combine both examples to
make example #1 work w/o the warning
message?
Thank you.
ps. If you also know a proper way to kill the login warning message, please do tell (the 'standard' "edit host file" advice isn't working for me)
Best Answer
You're getting the
bash: logout: not login shell: use 'exit'
message because you started an interactive non-login shell. Trybash -l
orbash -il
instead.
