I am performing the follwing line from a unix server:
I am getting return value 0, an empty stderr and a stdout that says "/usr/... Not owner, /usr/... Not Owner ..".
If I perform the command line "ssh otherHost chown -R user:group /usr" alone - then this message is returned appropriatley with return value !=0 and the error messages in the error stream.
I need to know programmitically if there was an error, and expect (which I need to avoid passing password) doesn't allow me. (A good idea would be to use expect to create sshkeys, and then ssh normally to servers - but I need the servers to have passwords between them).
Anyway how can I be sure an error occured while using expect?
Thank you very much.

I'm fairly new to scripting so this might not be possible.

ssh-ldap-helper
SSH-LDAP-HELPER(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SSH-LDAP-HELPER(8)NAME
ssh-ldap-helper -- sshd helper program for ldap support
SYNOPSIS
ssh-ldap-helper [-devw] [-f file] [-s user]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-ldap-helper is used by sshd(1) to access keys provided by an LDAP. ssh-ldap-helper is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the
sshd configuration file /etc/ssh/sshd_config by setting AuthorizedKeysCommand to ``/usr/libexec/openssh/ssh-ldap-wrapper''.
ssh-ldap-helper is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from sshd(8) via ssh-ldap-wrapper.
The options are as follows:
-d Set the debug mode; ssh-ldap-helper prints all logs to stderr instead of syslog.
-e Implies -w; ssh-ldap-helper halts if it encounters an unknown item in the ldap.conf file.
-f ssh-ldap-helper uses this file as the ldap configuration file instead of /etc/ssh/ldap.conf (default).
-s ssh-ldap-helper prints out the user's keys to stdout and exits.
-v Implies -d; increases verbosity.
-w ssh-ldap-helper writes warnings about unknown items in the ldap.conf configuration file.
SEE ALSO sshd(8), sshd_config(5), ssh-ldap.conf(5),
HISTORY
ssh-ldap-helper first appeared in OpenSSH 5.5 + PKA-LDAP .
