SSH - running command is not allowed

[Hitman]

Hi ,
I want to connect with ssh to my manager and a lauch a policy install to a firewall.

I use putty to connect ssh to the manager and in the putty profile i put the command fwm load mypolicy myfirewall .

I am able to connect to the manager but the manager refuse to execute my command. I get the message RUNNING COMMAND IS NOT ALLOWED.

Is the a way to remove this protection ?


Thanks in advance

What shell do you use in you connecting account? It should /bin/bash (not cpshell), I think.

The /bin/bash is the solution.

Hi bestwes,

As far as i remember, you edit your /etc/passwd file and put /bin/bash instead of cpshell for the user that you want to do the ssh connection.

On Secure Platform, use Expert mode.

tip for you guys.

chsh -s /bin/bash admin for example will change the shell to automatically bring you in to expert mode. You can get to cpshell by typing cpshell and hitting ctrl d on the keyboard will allow you to exit cpshell back to bash.
