rsh command - ksh
Hello,

I am trying to run a remote file (y.ksh) using rsh.
In this action i want to use an environment variable TOOL=/home/macc1

i am running the rsh from profile macc on server1.
Code:
rsh server2 -l macc1 "$TOOL/y.ksh"

but i can see that the executable command = /home/macc/y.ksh and not /home/macc1/y.ksh

How can I use environment variablein rsh???

HELP!!Smilie

do you have an account on server2 ? is it macc or macc1 ?
maybe your home directory it different from one server to another
can you just
Code:
rsh server2
pwd
id

(this will defaultly log in with your local user name (the one you are logged on server1 : macc)
or

Code:
rsh server2 -l macc1
pwd
id

do one of those work ? which ?

Maybe you should load your environment from within the script you want to run.
