Hi! I read the mail "secure copy problems". Is it possible to login with ssh, start a script and log out? I got a APC with only one USV cable and no additional module for serial-connectors (smart ups 700). Powerchute cannot stop this machine from remote without a cable or a network module, can it? I want to shutdown a second machine remotely. The shutdown script from the powerchute software should start a script, that loggs in the machine, I want to shutdown, runs shutdown and the loggs out again. This runs before shutdown of local machine runs with a dalay. Is it possible to login as user with ssh and authentification via keyfile? What is to be set in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config? System info: USV-remoted machine: SuSE 7.3 remote: Debian 3.0r0 reguards Philippe
