Hi,
I actually think we are deviating from the real issue. The issue is not with how the script is running rather it is with why it is not running only on crontab
I have tried the while loop, and preferred the for loop as it uses ssh to connect to a remote server, runs a script an generate files that has to be back on the remote server.
It has to repeat this like for 15 servers, the servers have varied root directory path, based on the root directory path on the servers i have two list files.

I am just inquisitive, does the ssh play a part with the crontab??
