How to check whether file is exist on remote server

Hi all,

I am new to UNIX Scripting. I would like to know how to check whether file is exist in remote server. I have google, but cannot find any solution that works.

Currently my code is like this:
if [ -f "ssh userid@remotehost 'ls /home/batch/sample.txt'" ]; then
echo 'data file exist'
else
echo 'data file not exist'
fi


Thanks in advance... Smilie
