Re: SSHEXEC Command Line Equivalent

Hi Eric.

I hope you're using the modern OpenSSH client program. Something like this:

ssh -F none \
  -oBatchMode=yes \
  -oUser=myUser \
  -oIdentityAgent=none \
  -oIdentityFile=/var/lib/jenkins/.ssh/id_rsa \
  -oPort=1401 \
  -oUpdateHostKeys=no \
  -oStrictHostKeyChecking=no \
  myHost.myDomain \
  "touch /myPath/toMyFiles/test.txt"


Note that the java SSH library may use obsolete encryption algorithms which you'll also have to force. See https://linux.die.net/man/5/ssh_config
