Carla: you said: "... Terry's home directory you must specify ls /home/terry" actually ssh tery@host2 'ls ~' or ls ~ will do the trick This has nothing to do with ssh and everything to do with escaping things so that the local shell doesn't expand it. |

Actually the '~' is redundant isn't it, in much the same way that the '~' is redundant in the command 'cd ~' By default ssh/scp use the home directory of the user account. |

Then ssh(1) is wrong. It states: "If command is specified, it is executed on the remote host instead of a login shell." (emph. added) However, running "strace -f" on the SSH server shows that, at some point, the unprivileged child sshd does an execve("/bin/bash", ... ), passing it "-c" and the client-side command in ARGV[]. |
