I am currently in the process of testing upgrading from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10.
one problem i have encountered is when i am running any of my batch scripts.
All my scripts start with #! /bin/ksh so that they will excuted in the ksh shell.
but the scripts will not run correctly. The enviroment varibales are
As you can see i am using the pfksh as my default shell, This is the same as on my solaris 8 box.
How can i get my ksh scripts to run correctly on the pfksh shell, should i change my deafult shell?

after further investigation, it appears that there is a difference between the ksh on solaris 8 and Solaris 10. i copied the ksh from 8 to 10 and the scripts run fine. put back the original ksh and the scripts stop working.
so something has changed in the ksh between 8 and 10.
well i have written a script to telnet and ftp to all my servers, the script runs great, BUT i can not for the life of me figure out how to get the script to repeat if the conditions are not filled.
this is what i have so far

Hi,
I'm using autosys and want to set it up that I receive emails when certain jobs start and finish. I don't want to edit each jobs script (ksh) to send a mail at start and finish, I would rather have a single script/job that watches for a trigger when the jobs have started or finished.

getusershell
getusershell(3C) Standard C Library Functions getusershell(3C)NAME
getusershell, setusershell, endusershell - get legal user shells
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
char *getusershell(void);
void setusershell(void);
void endusershell(void);
DESCRIPTION
The getusershell() function returns a pointer to a legal user shell as defined by the system manager in the file /etc/shells. If
/etc/shells does not exist, the following locations of the standard system shells are used in its place:
/bin/bash /bin/csh
/bin/jsh /bin/ksh
/bin/pfcsh /bin/pfksh
/bin/pfsh /bin/sh
/bin/tcsh /bin/zsh
/sbin/jsh /sbin/pfsh
/sbin/sh /usr/bin/bash
/usr/bin/csh /usr/bin/jsh
/usr/bin/ksh /usr/bin/pfcsh
/usr/bin/pfksh /usr/bin/pfsh
/usr/bin/sh /usr/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/zsh /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
The getusershell() function opens the file /etc/shells, if it exists, and returns the next entry in the list of shells.
The setusershell() function rewinds the file or the list.
The endusershell() function closes the file, frees any memory used by getusershell() and setusershell(), and rewinds the file /etc/shells.
RETURN VALUES
The getusershell() function returns a null pointer on EOF.
BUGS
All information is contained in memory that may be freed with a call to endusershell(), so it must be copied if it is to be saved.
