A few issues to tweak first:-
With indenting and the other adjustments, I get your code to be:-

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
set -x

while read servername          # File read at the done statement
do
   ssh -t $servername << EOF
   uname -a
   cd ~user
   read dir?"Enter the dir >"
   path=`ll -ld /home/user/"$dir"`
   if [ "$dir" -eq "$path" ]; then
      echo "Dir exists "
      read
      rm $path
   else
      echo "no such file"
   fi
   #echo $?
   # rm test
   #pwd
EOF

read
logout
done < /tmp/list

I must admit I am confused.

It's an automated process, but you seem to prompt for input. The ssh and the embedded read statements will be gobbling up your input for the file the way you had it, however I'm struggling to work out the purpose overall.

Can you elaborate on the logical you are trying to achieve. I've got:-
Sorry, but I'm a bit lost as to the purpose. Can you lay out a description of what you are trying to achieve?

Perhaps the logout should be before the EOF as a starter.
Should this really be an interactive script within the ssh bit?


If you can lay it out, then I'm sure we can help you.



Kind regards,
