Issue in Variable in SSH
Friends,
I want to write a script. The logic follows

1. Script starts
2. SSH to Remote Machine and check whether /home/testUser dir is there or not.
3. If it is there, am assigning a value to a variable. else not
4. If the variable is set, the do the copy from remote machine to my local machine using scp.

Here, i can not get the value of the variable in shell script.
For ex,
ssh -q REMOTE_SERVER "if [ -d /home/testUser ]; then FLAG=YES fi"
echo $FLAG

in the above case, i can not able to print the value "YES"

My doubt is can we get the value of the variable that we set inside SSH?
Thanks in advance
