j2ssh to run multiple commands

Hi ,

i am new here , so if i have mistake , i am sorry :)
i wrote a little program to run commands on a remote unit , i used the j2ssh .
it all works well for 1 commmand , and the output is just as expected.
when running the program with more than 2 commands , i dont get the output String .

working Command :
cd /usr/cti/bin;ls -la;

no 'ls -la' output :
cd /usr/cti/bin;pwd;ls -la;

Code:

---

      if ( CreateSSHconnection(_UnitIP) )
      {
          try {
                SessionChannelClient session =  ssh.openSessionChannel();
                InputStream in = session.getInputStream(); // start input stream for ssh result
                BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in)); // read to buffer from the stream
                StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
                logger.debug("Starting to execute commands on Unit : " + _UnitIP);
                session.executeCommand(_command);  // execute the command via SSH session
                while (((line = br.readLine()) !=  null)) // read from the buffer of the stream the line
                                    buffer.append(line + " \n "); // append the result line to the String buffer.
                output = buffer.toString();        // Convert the output line from stringbuffer to String.
                session.close();  // close the SSH session.
                ssh.disconnect();
                return output;
          }
          catch(Exception exGeneral){
              logger.error("failed to execute the command : " + exGeneral.getMessage());
              return null;
          }
      }
      else{
          logger.error("SSH connection was not created ! ");
          return null;
      }

any help will be great :) , thanks !

You would have to read the API specs for the classes you are using (the jars you downloaded) to find out if that method supports multiple commands and if so, how to pass those commands and get output.

i wish it had more Docs , but i reviewed it , and searched the net.
i thought maybe someone already had this issue , or something like that .

I didn't check the docs for the package you downloaded but a rule of thumb is never use jars that are not well documented.
The whole thing becomes a guessing game. How would you know which methods do what?
If that project doesn't have proper documentation then it's best to just find another.

well i couldn't find a similiar package that i can connect and run multiple commands in 1 session .
in all i have to connect and run 1 command , and thats not what i want .
i want to run multiple command .

and i am so close to get it , only the output make me trouble :)
