Re: Calling User Program

Though not strictly an SSH issue, I believe you can also override the 'shell' setting for a designated user. E.G. replace /bin/bash or whatever SHELL you have assigned to that user with /path/to/my/app. The result will be that login shall invoke /path/to/my/app.
read 'man 5 passwd' & 'man useradd'

Hi,

I am running sshd (version 5.2.p1) in my embedded platform and I can
succesfully login
from ssh client in remote host.

I like to do some modifications. i.e. After typing username and
password, I want to run a application program directly instead of
prompt. I like to know, which file has to be modified?

Thanks in Advance


For wide-system setting:

/etc/profile (sh & bash)

Per-user settings:

~/.profile (sh & bash)
~/.bash_profile (bash)
