Csh Weird Behaviour

[kubabuk]

Hi there,

Could someone explain me please the following behavior. I am testing the following script which basically logs in to another computer using ssh in cygwin and creates a folder. Everything is fine when I test that directly under cygwin, csh or dos shell. But when I am trying to do that in Houdini using Shell ROP or unix command, the script stops after first line ad wait until I type in correct password. It looks like houdini is able to send only one line at a time. Is that true? How can I overcome this problem? I will really appreciate any suggestion. Thanks! I'm on XP, and thats a script:

ssh -l kuba ws-001

thepassword

cd temp/test_project/hip

mkdir test

logout

cheers

I would try piping it. That way it will still be all on one line. So it would look something like this

ssh -l kuba ws-001 | thepassword | cd temp/test_project/hip | mkdir test

or if that doesnt work, you could do a hack and have 4 shell ROPs, one for each line a code, with a post render script that triggers one shell ROP after another.

I think the second one will not work because houdini opens separate shell window for each shell ROP. The piping method didn't work as well, it doesn't understand the syntax and prompts me: Command not found. Well I'll keep on searching...

If practical you could create an authorized_keys file in /home/kuba/.ssh on ws-001 for the Houdini workstation and eliminate the need for the password altogether.
