I use ssh (OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.7j on Gentoo Linux kernel 2.6.15) to run a command on a remote machine (same version) that doesn't terminate without an explicit kill. Is it possible to send this signal through ssh without using a login shell? Ideally, I'd be able to run "ssh server command," and then send SIGHUP to to the ssh process, which would result in it sending some signal to the command. However, the current behavior is that command is left running while ssh terminates. Alternatively, is it possible to tell ssh to send a signal to a command it is running on a remote server?
I searched google and saw that there has been some discussion of similar issues in the past, but am not clear how/if it was resolved. Thanks a lot for the help, Ryan
