Answer 1

Have a look at Runtime.exec() Javadoc

Process p = Runtime.exec("ssh myhost");
PrintStream out = new PrintStream(p.getOutputStream());
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream());

out.println("ls -l /home/me");
while (in.ready()) {
  String s = in.readLine();
  System.out.println(s);
}
out.println("exit");

p.waitFor();
