find command error
Hi folks,

I am trying a small script to delete a files from multiple servers having a common pattern.

I use this code

Code:
for i in `seq -w 25 100`
do
        echo "************host server-name*********"


        ssh -p 22022 server-name 'echo `hostname` && find /var/log  -name  "test*"  -exec rm -r {} \;' >>/tmp/test.log

        if [ $? -gt 0 ]

        then echo "some error , fix it "

        else echo "files deletion successful"

        fi

        done;

however when a directory is deleted, I see errors like "no such file or directory" and "some error, fix it" ...while in actual , the dir and files inside are deleted from that server. I dont want to see those errors ? please help.
