I am trying to disable RHN check when running yum on 1000 servers. It is done by:
Editing this file /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf
[main]
enabled = 0
I wrote a script to do this remotely. We are using individual accounts and I need to execute this command using SUDO:
for HOST in $(cat serverlist ) ; do echo $HOST; ssh -o ConnectTimeout=5 -oStrictHostKeyChecking=no $HOST -t 'sudo cp /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.$(date +%F) ; sudo sed -i -e "s/1/0/g" /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf ' ; done
I know it is a long line but why does it not work?
All individual commands work on their own
sudo cp /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.$(date +%F)
sudo sed -i -e "s/1/0/g" /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf
have tried escaping the special chars:
sudo sed -i -e "s\/1\/0\/g" /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf
But I get an error all the time:
sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `?'
Thanks for your help.
The sudo(1) command expects a pseudo-teletype (pty) and fails if it does not see one. Rewrite your command line to use su(1) instead. Use your local sudo(1) configuration to limit access to this script so only the select few can execute the script.
I actually found the answer to this question, or rather workaround. See the snippet below, where I got to -as root- ssh as me (szymonri) to other host, then invoke sed command as root in order to edit /etc/hosts
file. All thanks to base64
magic.
ME=`echo -e "$(hostname -I | awk '{print $1}')\toverlord"`
B64ENC=`echo "sed -i 's/.*overlord/$ME/g' /etc/hosts" | base64`
su - szymonri sh -c "ssh jetson bash -c \\\"echo $B64ENC \| base64 --decode \| sudo bash \\\""
/etc/hosts
