I have successfully created public private keys to make passwordless ssh connection. I need to make connection with remote server, go to a particular path, and append some input to sample.log file. Currently I am using os.system("ssh xxx@aaa.vvv.com") and then the steps to append the input to sample.log file. But my script stops only aftwr making connection with using os.system("ssh xxx@aaa.vvv.com").

  • When you execute that command, it starts an interactive SSH session. So it's waiting for you to type commands and then logout. – Barmar Feb 01 '22 at 05:40

    Use the Paramiko library to automate SSH sessions. – Barmar Feb 01 '22 at 05:40
  • You may try this if you don't prefer to use a library `os.system("ssh xxx@aaa.vvv.com \"echo 'new line' >> /my/path/sample.log\"")` – JSN Feb 01 '22 at 05:51

Paramiko Module is best suited for it.

I use it personally to make connections and execute comand from one device to another.

You can find more detailed information of paramiko on https://www.paramiko.org

  • I can not install any python package. BTW i got the solution, we can use cat script.py | ssh xx.xxx.xxx.xxx python - In script we can use os.system("ssh xx.xxx.xxx.xxx") – Fahad Naseem Feb 02 '22 at 06:07
