Using EOF do/for script
I am trying to ssh to a remote server Using an EOF script and run a do/for loop. I have been able to do the following:

Code:
su nbadmin -c "ssh -t sever1 exec /bin/sh -s"<<EOF
/etc/script/lister -C DAVID1 --s 12/01/2012 -e 12/03/2012 /volume
EOF`

This works just fine. But I want to run a script like this:

Code:
for server in server1; 
do 
     su nbadmin -c "ssh -t $server  \
       'for DAVID1  in `cd /tmp/image; 'ls'`;
       do 
            if '[ -d  /tmp/image/DAVID1  ]'; then 
               echo "host case is correct";
                break;
       else 
              echo "not correct";
              break;
      fi;
done'"

Is this possible? If so how would you do it? I am having problems maintaining the ssh session and running complete command. So I thought I would try EOF but am not aware of this would work

First off, consider your task. You seem to want to find the location of a directory on a server. This is a one time deal usually, which is why you ran it all into one line.

If I understand what you want:
Code:
for server in server1 server2 server3
do
    echo "$server..."
    dir=$(su - nbadmin -c "ssh $server ' find /tmp/image -type d' " )
    [ -z "$dir" ]  && echo "bad" || echo "good"
done

Some of your code does not make sense, but this is what I kinda think you want.
