I am trying to create a remote shell on OS X with NC.

I tried nc -l 1337 -e /bin/bash but it seems that the Mac version of NC does not support the -e option.

Does anyone know how I can achieve a remote shell on OS X preferably only using the built in tools?

Unfortunately SSH isn't an option. What I am doing has to be done solely from the command line (so GUI option alterations are out of the question). Also I am trying to avoid password's because it will cause problems for my client program.

EDIT: Apologies for lack of information. I thought I had added enough.

Basically, I have several VM's running OS X and need them to have able to use each others command line. My plan was to have NC running on each and the the main VM could send commands to them through a PHP script.

Also, the reason for wanting to use the build in commands/tools is because I this will eventually be run on physical hardware and Mac's will be added and removed regularly and I do not want to install new software on client machines.

The reason for avoiding GUI actions is that this will be run without supervision of myself and am trying to make this as seamless as possible. When a machine is connected, I am able to launch one command, and I need to do many commands and file transfers which is why a remote shell is what I am after.

The usual way is to enable the ssh service for command line access.

The very Mac way to do this:

  1. Go to Sytem Preferences App
  2. Choose Sharing
  3. Check 'Remote Login' checkbox

You should now be able to connect using any standard ssh client. Macs and linux/unix machines have it built in. PuTTY is a good choice on Windows.

Well The Problem you are having with NC ( assuming you are talking about NETCAT) the Apple Version does not have the -e option in its bin.

The best solution is, to Compile a GNU version of NC using the apple SDK, then replace the apple version with your own GNU NC version. as far as i know apple has no plans to add the -e option to appleNC.

I had to do this for a few apple daemons that were ..lacking.

First off, nc (which I had no prior knowledge of) appears to be a kind of telnet program. Insecure at best and rather rudimentary. /ssh-rdp-vnc-all-in-one-client-for-mac-and-linux-6610/. I would not advise trying to use it.

Second, you have failed to adequately describe what you're trying to do. Are you trying to remotely login to a Mac OS X computer from another computer? Are you trying to remote from the OS X computer to another? Are you trying to create some sort of remote server that's accessible externally?

Why can't you use SSH? Why can you adjust things via the system preferences?

Unfortunately SSH isn't an option. What I am doing has to be done solely from the command line

You can enable SSH access using sshd, or /usr/sbin/sshd -p 1337 to listen to a non-privileged port (hence not requiring a sudo password).

If you set up an SSH keys (for instance with 'ssh-keygen -t rsa') with no passphrase and then put the public key (as found in ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) in the ~/.ssh/authorized_hosts file in the remote user's host, then you won't need to exchange any passwords and everything can be done from the command line using ssh.
