Help with rsh problem
Hi all, just after a bit of help..
I am attempting to read in the contents of a flat text file from one system to another using 'rsh', i have this setup over around 15 machines and it works for them all except one. On this one machine it just reads in a blank line for some reason. The machine details are AIX 7.1 on the host machine and AIX 5.3 on the target. I am using the simple command - rsh (machine) cat (targetfile).
Now this just comes back with a blank output for some reason, however if i manually rsh over and then run the cat it works fine..
any ideas ??

dh_config_model_upgrade
DH_CONFIG_MODEL_UPGRADE(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation DH_CONFIG_MODEL_UPGRADE(1p)
NAME
dh_config_model_upgrade - add Config::Model based configuration merge
SYNOPSIS
dh_config_model_upgrade [ debhelper options ] [ --model_name xx ]
[ --model_package xx [ --model_version yy ] ]
[ --edit_option "..." ] [ -p pkg ]
DESCRIPTION
dh_config_model_upgrade is experimental
dh_config_model_upgrade is a debhelper that will modify the package script to perform configuration merge on package upgrade. This merge is
based on config-edit from Config::Model.
Model information can be specified by command options or a configuration file: "debian/foo.config-model"
A Model must be either :
o Delivered in the package in "debian/config-model/models/" directory
o Provided by another package
REQUIREMENTS
For this program to work, package maintainer must ensure that:
o ensure that *.postinst and *.config have a #DEBHELPER# line (if these files exist)
o ensure that control file has a dependency on ${misc:Depends}
OPTIONS
--model_name XX
Specifies the model name (a la "Config::Model") that will be used to perform the upgrade. Without this information,
"dh_config_model_upgrade" will do nothing. (shortcut "--mn")
--model_for "xx yy"
Specifies the package to act upon. Without this option, "dh_config_model_upgrade" will do nothing. To specify several packages, list the
packages between quotes. (shortcut "--mf")
--model_package XX
Specifies the debian package that provide the model specified bu "-model_name". (shortcut "--mp")
--model_version YY
Specifies the minimal version of the package that provides the model. (shortcut "--mv")
--edit_option "..."
Specify a list of options or command that will be passed verbatim to config-edit during upgrade. Be sure to use quotes.
-p
debhelper option to specify which package(s) to act on.
Usage
"dh_config_model_upgrade" can be used with only command line options. For instance
dh_config_model_upgrade --model_name Sshd -p openssh-server
--model_package lib-config-model-openssh-perl --model_version 1.206
Alternatively, you can specify relevant information in configuration files. For instance:
$ cat debian/openssh-server.config-model
model_name: Sshd
model_package: lib-config-model-openssh-perl
model_version: 1.206
$ cat debian/openssh-client.config-model
model_name: Ssh
model_package: lib-config-model-openssh-perl
model_version: 1.206
In this case, "dh_config_model_upgrade" will be invoked this way
dh_config_model_upgrade
If the model are delivered within the package, you will have to specify them in xx.install file.
Here's a example based on "approx" package where the model file and the parser/writer are delivered in approx package.
Debian dir contains:
debian/config-model/Approx.pm
debian/config-model/models/Approx.pl
"debian/approx.install" contains:
debian/config-model/Approx.pm usr/share/perl5/Config/Model
debian/config-model/models/Approx.pl usr/share/perl5/Config/Model/models
dh_config_model_upgrade is invoked as :
dh_config_model_upgrade -model_name Approx
debian files setup
"dh_config_model_upgrade" will work if:
o "control" file contains a "S{misc:Depends}" variable in "Depends" line
o "rules" contains a "#DEBHELPER#" line to insert generated postinst snippet
EXAMPLES
"dh_config_model_upgrade" can be called in the rules file via the dh command (no options are possible, you will have to specify
"debian/*.config_model" files):
%:
dh --with config_model
Or directly at the start of the build with
build:
dh_config_model_upgrade -model_name FooBar
Here's an example to avoid using Augeas when upgrading
build:
dh_config_model_upgrade -model_name Sshd -edit_option "-backend custom"
CAVEATS
Using options with a single dash (e.g. "-model_name" instead of "--model_name") will lead to ""Unknown option"" errors.
ENVIRONMENT
This program will exit(0) if "DH_NO_ACT" is set or if "DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS" contains "noconfigmodel".
SEE ALSO
debhelper
This program is an addendum to debhelper (part of libconfig-model-perl).
