Weird environment for usb-storage script?

Weird environment for usb-storage script?

[Michael Hale]

Hello,

I am having a problem with my /etc/hotplug/usb/usb-storage script.  As
you can see below it attempts to start the ssh server and eject the
cdrom when I insert my usb drive and then stop the ssh server and any
connections and unject the cdrom when I remove the drive.  The cd pops
in and out when I remove insert and remove the drive, but nothing
happens with ssh.  I have run usb-storage from the command line and it
has the desired behavior, but when hotplug runs the script it doesn't
start/stop ssh.  Any suggestions?

#!/bin/sh

/etc/init.d/ssh start
eject

echo "#!/bin/sh" > $REMOVER
echo "/etc/init.d/ssh stop" >> $REMOVER
echo "killall -9 sshd" >> $REMOVER
echo "eject -t" >> $REMOVER
chmod 777 $REMOVER

Maybe the environment is broken.

> #!/bin/sh

exec >/tmp/foo.$$ 2>&1
set -x

> /etc/init.d/ssh start

invoke-rc.d ssh start (would be better, if your system have invoke-rc.d)

echo '#!/bin/sh
/etc/init.d/ssh stop
killall -9 sshd
eject -t' > $REMOVER

> chmod 777 $REMOVER

Jörg.
