But, of course I had a typo in my response in message $6 in this thread (that has now been corrected) so it didn't work at all. If any of my assumptions were wrong, it might help to have a better explanation of what you're trying to do than just showing us code that isn't working and having us guess at what you're trying to do.
@Don
Here I am trying generate connectivity reports from client to server,
when I run this script it should ping with correct server according to the client hostname. eg: AA has one of the group of servers and client.
AAClient will not ping with BB1XX server
this i want to use in multiple clients under the groups of servers.
