Unable to access the cmd prompt in remote machine using openchannel in java

I'm trying to access the cmd prompt in administrator mode and run a batch file in the remote machine,but right now I'm not able to access the cmd prompt through openchannel. Did anybody tried to access it from remote machine in java?
Here is the code
java.util.Properties config = new java.util.Properties();
config.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
JSch jsch = new JSch();
session = jsch.getSession(user, ip, 22);
session.setPassword(password);
session.setTimeout(timeOut);
session.setConfig(config);
session.connect();
System.out.println("session connected");
//open command prompt to run the command = "C:\\executeBatchFile.bat" file
Channel channel = (ChannelExec) session.openChannel("exec");
((ChannelExec)channel).setCommand("cmd.exe /c \"echo %cd%\"\\executeBatchFile.bat");
channel.connect();
InputStream outputstream_from_the_channel = channel.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(outputstream_from_the_channel));
String jarOutput;
while ((jarOutput = reader.readLine()) != null)
{
System.out.println("Inside while loop");
System.out.println(jarOutput + "\n");
}
reader.close();
session.disconnect();
Expected behavior :set command should run as an administrator(though I have logged in as admin),come back to the c:drive (cd) and execute the batch file ie; C:executeBatchFile.bat
Actual behaviour : command gives the user path(not as admin) when I print the jarOutput. ie; C:\Users\Admin\executeBatchFile.bat
could you suggest any solution on the same?

This has been resolved using PsExec command instead of JSCH
String pscommand=E:\\Tool\\psexec -u user -p pwd \\\\ip -s -d cmd.exe /c C:\\executescript.bat
process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(pscommand);
InputStream es = process.getErrorStream();
BufferedReader errReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(es));
String line;
// Read STDOUT into a buffer.
while ((line = errReader.readLine()) != null)
{
system.out.println(line);
}
Could any one tell me how to open the cmd prompt in administrator mode(I logged in using admin credentials only but still it does not open in admin mode).Here I need to run the script in administrator.

How to run Jsch multiple commands from shell-channel using String input instead of console

I am writing a program using JSch library, and have to open a shell channel and execute few commands that are stored in String.
I need to feed the input commands from String variable rather than console.
I have come across a post Jsch : Command Output unavailable
In code given, its working fine for commands like pwd,whoami etc, but its going for a hang when i am trying to do a sudo -u hiveuser -i.
Here is the code:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
JSch jsch = new JSch();
String host = "my.host.server";
String user = "myLoginId";
String pswd = "myPASSword";
Session session=jsch.getSession(user,host, 22);
session.setPassword(pswd);
session.setConfig("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
session.setConfig("PreferredAuthentications","publickey,keyboard-interactive,password");
session.connect();
System.out.println("Connected");
Channel channel = session.openChannel("shell");
OutputStream ops = channel.getOutputStream();
PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(ops);
channel.connect();
ps.println("sudo -iu hiveuser");
ps.println(pswd);
ps.println("hive");
ps.println("desc table myHiveTable;");
ps.flush();
ps.close();
InputStream in = channel.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
System.out.println("Opening...");
String jarOutput;
while ((jarOutput = reader.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(jarOutput);
reader.close();
channel.disconnect();
session.disconnect();
}

You could try echoing in the password:
echo password | sudo -iu hiveuser --stdin

Providing input/subcommands to command executed over SSH with JSch

I'm trying to manage router via Java application using Jcraft Jsch library.
I'm trying to send Router Config via TFTP server. The problem is in my Java code because this works with PuTTY.
This my Java code:
int port=22;
String name ="R1";
String ip ="192.168.18.100";
String password ="root";
JSch jsch = new JSch();
Session session = jsch.getSession(name, ip, port);
session.setPassword(password);
session.setConfig("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
System.out.println("Establishing Connection...");
session.connect();
System.out.println("Connection established.");
ChannelExec channelExec = (ChannelExec)session.openChannel("exec");
InputStream in = channelExec.getInputStream();
channelExec.setCommand("enable");
channelExec.setCommand("copy run tftp : ");
//Setting the ip of TFTP server
channelExec.setCommand("192.168.50.1 : ");
// Setting the name of file
channelExec.setCommand("Config.txt ");
channelExec.connect();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
String line;
int index = 0;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
{
System.out.println(line);
}
session.disconnect();
I get
Line has an invalid autocommand '192.168.50.1'
The problem is how can I run those successive commands.

Calling ChannelExec.setCommand multiple times has no effect.
And even if it had, I'd guess that the 192.168.50.1 : and Config.txt are not commands, but inputs to the copy run tftp : command, aren't they?
If that's the case, you need to write them to the command input.
Something like this:
ChannelExec channel = (ChannelExec) session.openChannel("exec");
channelExec.setCommand("copy run tftp : ");
OutputStream out = channelExec.getOutputStream();
channelExec.connect();
out.write(("192.168.50.1 : \n").getBytes());
out.write(("Config.txt \n").getBytes());
out.flush();
In general, it's always better to check if the command has better "API" than feeding the commands to input. Commands usually have command-line arguments/switches that serve the desired purpose better.
A related question: Provide inputs to individual prompts separately with JSch.

Java code to run command on remote Linux with sesu access

I need java code that logs into linux box with my credentials, then do a sesu , and then execute a shell script. Permission to execute the shell script if for only sesu user, hence sesu-ing after login is critical. I used te following code which can help me execute a command with my credential scope, however, I need sesu login following my login. Please suggest a way.
I tried adding the sesu command in teh command list, but it prompts for a password. I want a way to pass the password as well and completly automate it.
import java.io.InputStream;
import com.jcraft.jsch.Channel;
import com.jcraft.jsch.ChannelExec;
import com.jcraft.jsch.JSch;
import com.jcraft.jsch.Session;
public class SSHCommandExecutor {
/** * #param args */
public static void main(String[] args) {
String host = "xxxxxxx";
String user = "xxxxxxx";
String password = "xxxxxxx";
String command1 = "cd /test; ./test.sh";
try {
java.util.Properties config = new java.util.Properties();
config.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
JSch jsch = new JSch();
Session session = jsch.getSession(user, host, 22);
session.setPassword(password);
session.setConfig(config);
session.connect();
System.out.println("Connected");
Channel channel = session.openChannel("exec");
((ChannelExec) channel).setCommand(command1);
channel.setInputStream(null);
((ChannelExec) channel).setErrStream(System.err);
InputStream in = channel.getInputStream();
channel.connect();
byte[] tmp = new byte[1024];
while (true) {
while (in.available() > 0) {
int i = in.read(tmp, 0, 1024);
if (i < 0)
break;
System.out.print(new String(tmp, 0, i));
}
if (channel.isClosed()) {
System.out.println("exit-status: " + channel.getExitStatus());
break;
}
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);
} catch (Exception ee) {}
}
channel.disconnect();
session.disconnect();
System.out.println("DONE");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

Variant A: Using JSch all the way
This minimal script (test.sh) requests an input from stdin before putting out one line of data:
#!/bin/bash
echo -n "Is this a good question (y/n)? "
read answer
if echo "$answer" | grep -iq "^y" ;then
echo Yes
else
echo No
fi
So it should be equivalent to your call requesting a password to be given. Now have a look at this code on how to send data into that process
String command1 = "cd /home/jan; ./test.sh";
try {
java.util.Properties config = new java.util.Properties();
config.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
JSch jsch = new JSch();
Session session = jsch.getSession(user, host, 22);
session.setPassword(password);
session.setConfig(config);
session.connect();
System.out.println("Connected");
ChannelExec channel = (ChannelExec)session.openChannel("exec");
OutputStream o = channel.getOutputStream();
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(o);
InputStream in = channel.getInputStream();
((ChannelExec) channel).setCommand(command1);
channel.connect();
// 1 - Reading the prompt to input password
byte[] buf = new byte[255];
int len = in.read(buf);
System.out.println(new String(buf,0,len));
// 2 - Send (password) data and flush stream
pw.println("y");
pw.flush();
// 3 - Read result
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
System.out.println(br.readLine());
// 4 - Clean up
channel.disconnect();
session.disconnect();
Variant B: Shell magic
String command1 = "cd /test; echo 'password' | ./test.sh";
or
String command1 = "cd /test; ./test.sh <<< 'password'";
(of cause you'd need to specify correct password there)

Executing remote shell commands in Java

I need to execute some remote commands on unix box using java. For that I have used jsch but the issue is that I need to collect the output of last command.
i wrote the below piece of code:
public static String run(String hostname, String hostPort, String username, String password, String[] commands) throws JSchException, IOException
{
JSch jsch = new JSch();
Session session = jsch.getSession(username, hostname, 22);
session.setPassword(password);
Properties config = new Properties();
config.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
session.setConfig(config);
session.connect();
// System.out.println("Connected");
ChannelExec channel = (ChannelExec) session.openChannel("exec");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(channel.getInputStream()));
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
for (String s : commands)
{
sb.append(s + ';');
}
String command = sb.toString();
channel.setCommand(command);
channel.connect();
String msg = null;
//String output = "";
StringBuffer output = new StringBuffer();
while ((msg = in.readLine()) != null)
{
//output = output + msg;
output.append(msg);
}
channel.disconnect();
session.disconnect();
// System.out.println("DONE");
return output.toString();
}
In the above code, I am collecting all the command result but i need to collect only result of last command fired.
Please provide your inputs.
