I have a script located on a remote server. It's in the following directory:

/usr/local/bin/myscript.sh.

I can execute the script locally on the server with:

/usr/local/bin/myscript.sh computername $env1 $env2

How can I execute this script remotely with SSH? The environment variables are stored in /etc/profile on the remote server. I get the error not enough arguments when running the following command locally:

ssh remoteserver -C "sh /usr/local/bin/myscript.sh computername $env1 $env2"

Update

I also get this error when using

ssh remoteserver -C 'sh /usr/local/bin/myscript.sh computername $env1 $env2'

Update 2

I got it working after I sourced my environment variables:

ssh salt -C 'source /etc/profile && sh /usr/local/bin/myscript.sh computername $env1 $env2'
ssh linux bash

I think you should use 'command', not "command". Because "" will expands $ and \ while '' disables all expansions.
