Question Terminal control from rsh
I call "rsh -l username HOSTMANE myscript.sh" from the script on TRU64 OSF1 cluster. The myscript.sh does some logic one the different cluster node
and output requested info on my terminal.
If I try to use commands to control output (clear, tput etc..) it just does not work. Obviously the rsh looses original tty but it still knows where to sent output ..
Question - Is it possible somehow to use 'tput' commands from myscript.sh invoked by remote shell.
Thanks
Zam

Not really, since a non interactive login using rsh does not get allocated a tty.
