The bug reports that the '-c' argument is not recognised. However, when I try it, the command works, with a new konsole window opening and the ssh command working. I do get an error when I close the new child window, but that is all. However, while testing this I found an odd behaviour. If I run the command konsole -e bash -c "root ollie" it works and I have a konsole session which is logged into Ollie. However, if I do konsole -e sh -c "ssh -Y C -l root ollie" it briefly opens the window but then immediately closes it, presumably because the SSH has failed. The odd thing is that the two commands are effectively the same thing [gary@gary ~]$ cat bin/root #!/bin/bash if [ "$1" == "" ]; then host=127.0.0.1 else host=`shift` fi ssh -Y -C -l root $host $* [gary@gary ~]$ _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
