Thank you! That looks a lot better than the craziness  I was doing. 
When you do createChannel() how do you send the command to the shell channel? 

Thank you for your help

You can just read from channel.getInputStream(). That's my code for
running remote shell commands:



            try {

                channel = createChannel();

                InputStream is = channel.getInputStream();

                in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));

                out = new StringWriter();



                String line;

                while ((line = in.readLine()) != null ||
!channel.isClosed()) {

                    if (line != null) {

                        out.write(line + '\n');

                        out.flush();

                    }

                }

                in.close();

                is.close();

                setExitStatus(channel.getExitStatus());

            } catch (JSchException jse) {

                log.warning("Jsch failure during running " + cmd);

            } catch (IOException ex) {

                log.warning("IO failure during running " + cmd);

            } finally {

                disconnect();

            }

executed on Shell, and how do you know if it is done executing?

  

I need this because some programs look for variables set by the
.profile (ksh).

  

  

This is how I'm doing it now:

-open Shell channel and send a ByteArrayInputStream that contains my
command, while outputing to a tmpfile.txt

-sleep for a bit and then (this is because i dont know when my command
is done running.. this is a retarded way of doing it since some
commands take a lot longer than others)

-open another channel(Exec) and send "cat tmpfile.txt" then read the
input stream

-remove the temp file

  

  

  

********************start of sample code**********

  

    commandToRun=commandToRun + " >
"+tempFile+"\n";

    byte[] bytes = commandToRun.getBytes();

    ByteArrayInputStream bais=new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);

  

try {  ..... //session connection stuff

        .....

       

        Channel channel=session.openChannel("shell");

        ((ChannelShell)channel).setInputStream(bais);

        channel.connect();

  

        try{Thread.sleep(1500);}catch(Exception ee){}  

  

        Channel channel2=session.openChannel("exec");

        ((ChannelExec)channel2).setCommand("cat "+tempFile+"\n");      

        InputStream in1=channel2.getInputStream();

        channel2.connect();

  

        //channel 3 deletes the temp file

  

**********************end of sample code **************************

  

  

  

There must be a better way of doing this... 

What about a way to know when the command is done? Since the first
channel is a shell, i dont think you can wait for is to be .isClosed()
since it never is.

  

Thank you very much for your help.

  

  

Mike
