Send commands to remote machine with 'do shell script'


  • Subject: Send commands to remote machine with 'do shell script'

I have setup ssh to login in without asking for a password with dsa keys.
Now I want to send commands to the remote machine.
I have tried the following.

do shell script "ssh user@address ; ps"

But the 'ps' returns processes for the local machine.

I also want to be able to run apps remotely via applescript.

I can get it working with Tell Application "Terminal" using multiple 'do script's in window 1.

But l'd prefer to keep it enclosed in an applescript.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Alan.
