1
at now
3. The system will prompt you to enter a command. Type the following command:
1
bash
4. Press `Enter`. 5. You will now be in an interactive system shell. You can enter any command you like. 6. When you are finished, type `exit` to exit the shell. Here is an example of using the `at` utility to spawn an interactive system shell:

Output

To spawn an interactive system shell using the `at` utility on Linux, follow these steps: 1. Open a terminal window or SSH into your Linux system. 2. Run the following command:

1
at now -f
3. The cursor will move to the next line, and a shell prompt will appear. 4. You can now enter any command you would normally run in a shell, such as `ls`, `cd`, or `echo`. 5. When you are finished, press `Ctrl` + `D` to exit the shell and return to the `at` prompt. 6. The `at` prompt will show you a list of the jobs you have scheduled. 7. To view the output of a job, use the `atq` command, followed by the job number:
1
atq 1
8. To delete a job, use the `atrm` command, followed by the job number:
1
atrm 1
**Example:** The following example demonstrates how to use the `at` utility to spawn an interactive system shell in 5 minutes:
1
at now + 5 minutes -f
After 5 minutes, an interactive shell will be spawned. You can enter commands in the shell, and the output will be displayed in the terminal window where you ran the `at` command. **Note:** * The `at` utility is available on most Linux distributions. * You must have permission to run the `at` command. If you are not sure if you have permission, contact your system administrator.

Output

To spawn an interactive system shell using the `at` utility on Linux, follow these steps: 1. Open a terminal window. 2. Type the following command, replacing "command" with the command you want to execute:

1
at now
For example, to open an interactive bash shell, you would type:
1
at now -c "bash"
3. Press Enter. 4. The `at` utility will schedule the command to run at the specified time. In this case, the command will run immediately. 5. You will be prompted to enter your password. Enter your password and press Enter. 6. An interactive shell will be spawned. You can now enter commands and execute them as usual. 7. When you are finished using the shell, type `exit` to close it. Here are some additional options that you can use with the `at` command: * `-t time`: Specify the time at which you want the command to run. The time can be specified in a variety of formats, such as "now", "1pm", or "3:30pm". * `-f file`: Read the command to be executed from the specified file. * `-m`: Send an email notification when the command has finished running. For more information, see the `at` man page:
1
man at
