Don, usually I would be scared to try </dev/null(empty stuff), but I tried, its working,, how is it telling ssh not to use same file descriptor to read serverList?
Aia, changing file descriptor is not working for me..
ssh -n is working for my current script. But I do see myself using ssh in a interactive manner and enter passwords to remote server login.. in that case I guess while can't be an option..
Interestingly when I replaced while with for loop, its working fine.. since my input is simple I can afford, but this is not the right way for complex inputs.
How can tell ssh not to read from serverList file? -u12 trick is not working on SuSE linux 11 I am using..

I ssh to another server and run a few commands - start a few processes that run on the server.
I then type exit - by my command line hangs.
I have heard that it is waiting until anything processes you are running complete, but these processes are going to run 24*7*365 so obviously I cant wait.... (4 Replies)
Another question, is it possible to, in a for-loop incrementing until it reaches a certain number, to have it loop again without incrementing? Just have it drop what it is doing when it reaches this command and start again at the same number it was at? I know I could make a while loop and just... (0 Replies)

RPC.YPPASSWDD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual RPC.YPPASSWDD(8)NAME
rpc.yppasswdd -- NIS update password file daemon
SYNOPSIS
rpc.yppasswdd [-d directory] [-noshell] [-nogecos] [-nopw] [-m arg1 [arg2 ...]]
DESCRIPTION
rpc.yppasswdd must be running on the NIS master server to allow users to change information in the password file.
The options are as follows:
-d directory Change the root directory of the password file from ``/'' to directory. It is important to create the binary database
files (pwd.db and spwd.db) when using this switch or the password change will fail. The databases need to be created
only once with the following command:
pwd_mkdb -d directory directory/etc/master.passwd
-noshell Don't allow changes of the shell field in the passwd file.
-nogecos Don't allow changes of the gecos field in the passwd file.
-nopw Don't allow changes of the password in the passwd file.
-m arg1 [arg2 ...]
Additional arguments to pass to make in /var/yp.
FILES
/etc/passwd
/etc/master.passwd
