Question communication framework/sfw for stand alone ksh scripts.
Hi all:
This is an open question.
Which way/framework/sfw do you use to communicate/signals scripts running stand alone (on the same and different machines).
For example sometimes I use witness files to "trigger" that other script star/stop work and another one do a task of a job.
Of course; is kind easier if the scripts runs on the same machine; but what happend if the run on different ones?

The madness of write code that deal with network; the transport of the witness files isn't despicable; not mention of start another script that maybe /maybe not running. If there is no ssh/passwordless *shell (rsh/rlogin/ssh) ?

I have thinking that using a Dbus java interface could make this workable without the mess of having C/C++ code to compile and mix with KSH.

But what do you think/have done/use to make this usable and almost doable ?

Any idea/comment wellcome!
