run prompt command with multiple parts

[wolf99]

Hi Folks

At a last attempt to integrate some SSH functionality I'd like to be able to run the prompt command

echo myString | C:\plink.exe testProfile -l userName

now I can get the later part ok with:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("echo 5| c:\lantronix\plink.exe", "test2 -l admin")

but how can I put the echo myString part?
Doesn't matter if its ugly, its just to automate test so we can easily change the values of myString

Cheers

Have you tried using cmd.exe as the program and everything else is the argument?

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("cmd.exe", "echo 5| c:\lantronix\plink.exe test2 -l admin")

You may need to provide the full path to cmd.exe, i.e. "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe"
