I'm trying to write a script that will ssh into a box for me. I'm using Python and leveraging the paramiko library. I can successfully ssh on the box, but as soon as the script terminates, the ssh connection also terminates. I want to keep the connection open after the script has completed running.
Python:
self.ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
self.ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
self.ssh.connect(host, username=self.username, password=self.password)
stdout = execute(self.ssh, 'pwd') # test command for now to verify i'm on box
print stdout
sys.exit()
Console:
$ ssh.py
[u'/home/myuser\n']
myuser@xxxx ~
$
I haven't been able to find similar examples online, so any help would be appreciated.

Try this:
import subprocess
subprocess.call(["ssh", "myuser@myserver"])
