$ ssh -T ubuntu_at_192.168.2.117 sudo /etc/init.d/opendkim restart

This command works (without the -tt parameter to sudo), but it only
works if you have passwordless sudo (run as root or set NOPASSWD in
/etc/sudoers). In order to prompt for the sudo password over ssh, you
need to allocate a pty.

sm: yes a pty is allocated.
