ssh <user@server> <command> doesn't allocate pseudo terminal, therefore tcgetattr() + &=~ECHO + tcsetattr() won't work. You should use ssh -t <user@server> <command> instead. Some programs refuse to be started without a TTY, e.g. screen: > xrgtn@ux280p:~$ ssh xrgtn-gu...@alioth.debian.org screen > Must be connected to a terminal. > xrgtn@ux280p:~$ I think this is the only thing we can do (refuse to start passwd without a terminal). -- With best regards, xrgtn
