Open SSH configuration query

[Saurabh Bhatnagar]

Hi Gert,
This is true that we can run the bat file but since this command is run as an argument to passive ssh, it returns back to prompt soon after.

What I need is to run the bat and then run my shell script in the *same* shell.

This is what I understood:

$ssh <server> "cmd.exe /c script.bat"
(This will run the bat file and return the prompt)
$

What I need is that when I do
$ssh <server> mainscript.sh
It should find the shares set above.
This will not happen as both are different ssh sessions.

Let me know now.

You can run cmd.exe from the ksh script, and cmd.exe will run bat files.

Please *read* what I write, and spend some time thinking about it (or even testing it), before you claim "it cannot be done".
