Alias, function or script (bash) to "revert" cd command?

In all of my brief and superficial experience with Unix or Linux, the one curious and consistent thing has been that 'cd ./' (back up one directory level) has done absolutely nothing in any of them. Now I understand that, at least for bash, 'cd ./' appears to have been substituted by 'cd ..' Am...

I have a cluster with 6 servers on it, each server has a directory with a set of files called *.pid and *.mpid. Each file contains the pid of a process that may or may not be running on that server....

IODINE-CLIENT-START(8)					  System Administration Utilities				    IODINE-CLIENT-START(8)

NAME

       iodine-client-start - start an iodine IPv4-over-DNS tunnel

SYNOPSIS

       iodine-client-start [option]

DESCRIPTION

       'iodine-client-start' starts an iodine IP-over-DNS tunnel.

       -h, --help
	      Print help and exit

       -v, --version
	      Print version info and exit

       Invoking  the  program  without	options  attempts to set up and configure an iodine IP-over-DNS tunnel using the configuration in the file
       /etc/default/iodine-client or by querying the user. It tries to figure out the right way to set things up by observing the network, and	if
       all else fails by guessing.

       QUICK CONFIGURATION

       Put two lines in the file /etc/default/iodine-client

	      subdomain=your.tunnel.sub.domain

	      passwd=password_for_that_tunnel

       or invoke the script with those environment variables set:

	      env subdomain=xxx passwd=xxx iodine-client-start

       If these are not set, the script will query the user for them.

       DETAILS

       The configuration file consists of lines which are either comments starting with '#', or settings of the form VAR="val". Valid VARs are:

       subdomain

	      Sample value: your.tunnel.sub.domain (no default, must be set)

       passwd

	      Sample value: password_for_that_tunnel (no default, must be set)

       testhost

	      Hostname to ping when testing if network is working (default: slashdot.org)

       bounce_localnet

	      Take the local network down and then up again before starting tunnel (default: false)

       test_ping_localnet

	      Test if the local network is working by pinging the gateway (default: true)

       test_ping_tunnel

	      Test if the iodine tunnel is working after it has been set up by pinging the host at the other end (default: true)

       test_ping_final

	      Test if the tunnel is working after everything is ostensibly set up by trying to ping an external host (default: true)

       default_router

	      IP address of router on the local network---should be found automatically, set this if that fails and the program guesses wrong.

       interface

	      Interface  to  use  (e.g., eth1, eth0, etc) for connection to DNS server used for the iodine tunnel---should be found automatically,
	      set this if that fails and the program guesses wrong.

       mtu

	      Set if tunnel MTU needs to be manually changed (lowered). Should not be necessary anymore, as recent versions of iodine negotiate an
	      appropriate  MTU	during	tunnel setup. But if that negotiation does not happen, or if you are using an older version of iodine, the
	      default tunnel MTU is 1024, and if the local DNS server restricts to 512 byte packets you might need to use an MTU of 220.

       skip_raw_udp_mode

	      Set "-r" option in iodine command line. With this option, iodine does not try to establish a direct UDP socket to the iodine  server
	      on port 53. (default: true).

       continue_on_error

	      Set  if  the script should continue even if a command fails.  Use to test script when running as non-root. Defaults to false if run-
	      ning as root, true otherwise.
