remotely call function from local script
The following code doesn't work properly which means it doesn't displays remote output.
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
#################### Function macAddressFinder ########################
macAddressFinder()
{
  `ifconfig -a > ipInterfaces`
   `cat ipInterfaces`
}
#######################################################################



#
#
  
print -n "Server name is: "
read ServerName
     
     ssh $LOGNAME@$ServerName "$(macAddressFinder)"

exit

I wish I had output from remote server not from local.

thx for help.

Has the output only on remote.
Code:
cmd="ifconfig -a > ipInterfaces "

has the output on both remote and local.
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

cmd="ifconfig -a |tee  ipInterfaces "

print -n "Server name is: "
read ServerName
     
ssh $LOGNAME@$ServerName "$(cmd)"

exit
