RE: parse a file and fill an array with it

Hi Franklin,

Thanks you, I got it working.
But, I want these details in a array with extra spaces removed.

However, I tried by adding a ssh command to it and does not work
When I do this the loop gets restricted to a single iteration. ?I did not see the second iteration happening. and it happens only the case of ssh.

Instead local commands works fine.

awk '{for(i=2;i<=NF;i++){print $i}}' "a" |
while read mach; do
#do your stuff here
echo "hello $mach"
ssh root@rna4 uname -n # <----
echo $?
done

Regards,
Mukund Jampala

while read mach; do
  #do your stuff here
  echo "$mach"
done
