Bash script on a Linux machine and it needs to connect from it over SSH to another Bluecoat device and run the script over there
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
The idea is to connect to a remote device bluecoat proxy over SSH, let the script do the authentication and execute the commands over in another script, create file with name date & time and save the output to local directory from where the script is running, without the need of upload this script to a remote server.
I have prepared the script as below: HC.sh
#!/bin/bash
HOSTNAME=$1
Date=`date +"%b-%d-%y_%I-%M"`
ssh user@$1 'bash -s' < Proxy.sh >HC_$1_$Date.txt
I have another script with set of commands : Proxy.sh
#!bin/bash
echo "Please print me to test1"
HOSTNAME=$1
echo " "
echo "********************************** Date***************************************"
show version
echo " "
echo "********************************** Status***************************************"
show date
quit
Both the file have permission set as : -rwxrwxrwx
Executing sh Proxy.sh 192.x.x.x (192.x.x.x device IP) from "Bash on Ubunto on Windows 10" I could prompt for the device, post supplying password, it just not providing anything, immediately go to next line and a file name with 0KB size creating. Basically the Proxy.sh is not running. Could you someone guide me what is wrong with my script ?

how to make that works ? I have the same requirement for checkpoint firewall. I am trying to see if this similar set up can be possible for checkpoint firewall as well. I have this script basically to run health check of the device.

For general health checks I would use SNMP instead

@RuiFRibeiro the command as presented (ssh remote 'bash -s' < file) will do the redirection locally; the<is outside the'quotes so is part of the command line shell.
