Plink SSH: '-m file' option not working
- by Technext
Hi,
I am trying to use Plink for running commands on remote server. Both, local & remote machine are Windows. Though I am able to connect to the remote machine using Plink, i am not able to use the '-m file' option.
I tried the following three ways but to no avail:
Try 1:
plink.exe -ssh -pw mypwd gchhabra@machine -m file.txt
Could not chdir to home directory /home/gchhabra: No such file or directory
dir: not found
file.txt only contains one command i.e., dir
Try 2:
plink.exe -ssh -pw mypwd gchhabra@machine dir
Could not chdir to home directory /home/gchhabra: No such file or directory
dir: not found
Try 3:
plink.exe -ssh -pw mypwd gchhabra@machine < file.txt
In this case, I get the following output:
Using username "gchhabra".

After I get the above prompt, it hangs.
Can anyone please help me with this?
