Btw I am running with root access. I didn't need to provide my login info to ssh with the script before to do this check either.
Its executable from anywhere with just "hosts" line. If I run it from Box 1 from which we make all our changes from, I get a list of all the boxes:
box 1(root):/home/izivanov# hosts
box 2
box 3
box4
~
~
~
box n
And if I run it from box 2, I'll get:
box 1
box3
box4
~
~
~
Box n
Do you understand?
So running the script from box 1, its getting only the first line of `hosts`, i.e. Box 2, and then not checking the file in question against that box either!
We also include `hostname' executable so that it would do this check on every box including the one I'm currently on, box 1! But it's not doing that!
