Exclamation Getting the exit status of a remote command
Hi to everyone.

How can I get the exit status from a remote command executed with rexec?

machine A has RedHat Linux 9 and the remote machine B has SCO UNIX.

Code:

rexec -l user -p password host sh /u/files/scripts/seq_cal.sh 2006 08

I want the exit status returned by seq_cal.sh not the one returned by rexec. It always return 0, that means its execution was okay.

Thanks
