Remote auto login

[Muttley]

I have searched around for the answer to this but found only hints.
I would like to run a program from Windows which will auto login to my Ubuntu server and run a script stored on that server.
I use PuTTy to connect to the server at present and am able to make up the script as required but need suggestions as to what software I can use!

Thanks in advance!

Re: Remote auto login

I can't speak for putty because I don't use windows, but if you are doing just pure SSH you can do something like this:

ssh -f user@host ls

i.e. Just append the command you want to run to the end of the ssh command.

I assume Putty has some place to put the command you want executed after a successful connection. Check the connection config in Putty.

Note, if you don't want to be prompted for a password, you'll need SSH passwordless logins setup. This appears to be a pretty good how to to get passwordless login working with putty: http://www.blindhog.net/linux-ssh-pa...in-with-putty/
