Cut command on a remote machine using rsh

eamani_sun · #1 (**permalink**) 06-04-2008

Hi all,

I have a file on a remote machine and I want to do a cut operation on that file.

So, I have been doing

rsh <remote> " cut -d " " -f 2 <filename> "
cut: invalid delimiter

But, when I get the file to the local machine and run the same command, I get the o/p required.

can someone help me with this?

Thanks,
Sunny
