in reply to remsh using perl script

Have you tried your remsh script as a stand-alone shell script? Does it work as a stand-alone shell script?

Launching complicated text as commands from Perl does not magically make things work.

    Even as shell script, I am getting same output as perl. i.e on remote machine commands are not getting executing. Any suggestions to improve the code ?

      RajNaidu:

      If it's doing the same as a shell script, then it's not a perl problem. Solve the problem, and *then* bundle it into a perl script. There are many unix support forums that can help you with that bit.

      Having said that, I'd suggest doing something simple in your remsh script to help you find the problem, such as:

      set >RajNaidu.test.remsh

      [download]

      Then log into the remote machine and locate the RajNaidu.test.remsh file and check that the directory and environment is what you expect. Then add bits of your script to it and echo your errors to a file to get clues as to what's failing and why.
