NAME
on - execute a command on a remote system with the local
environment
SYNOPSIS
on [-i] [-d] [-n] host command [argument] ...
DESCRIPTION
The on program is used to execute commands on another sys-
tem, in an environment similar to that invoking the program.
All environment variables are passed and the current working
directory is preserved. To preserve the working directory,
the working file system must be either already mounted on
the host or be exported to it. Relative path names will only
work if they are within the current file system. Absolute
path names may cause problems.
The standard input is connected to the standard input of the
remote command. The standard output and the standard error
from the remote command are sent to the corresponding files
for the on command.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-d Debug mode. Prints out some messages as work is
being done.
-i Interactive mode. Uses remote echoing and special
character processing. This option is needed for
programs that expect to be talking to a terminal.
All terminal modes and window size changes are pro-
pagated.
-n No Input. This option causes the remote program to
get EOF when it reads from the standard input,
instead of passing the standard input from the
standard input of the on program. For example, -n
is necessary when running commands in the back-
ground with job control.
