I'm writing a bash script where I need to login in a remote machine via ssh, start a process, end the ssh session, do some other things, and then login again via ssh to kill the process. But the process doesn't get killed. I have tried a lot of ways. Here is the part of the script that won't work:
ssh [email protected] &>/dev/null << EOF
tshark -i ens160 -w /home/localadmin/dns_traffic_61.pcap &>/dev/null &
EOF
ssh [email protected] &>/dev/null << EOF
kill $(pidof tshark)
EOF
I have also tried putting the tshark command in a script so I would kill the script like this:
ssh [email protected] &>/dev/null << EOF
sh tshark.sh &>/dev/null &
EOF
ssh [email protected] &>/dev/null << EOF
pid=$(ps -ef | grep tshark.sh | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}')
kill $pid
EOF
and this:
ps -ef | grep tshark.sh | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'|xargs kill
Nothing seems to work.
Note: When I connect via ssh manually I can kill the process, only the bash script can't.
