Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi All ,

I'm running a script abc.sh in server "host1" shown as below :

Code:

#! /bin/bash

sh stop.sh

ssh user@$host2 "/home/user/prod_work/xyz.sh; 

sh start.sh

The problem I am facing is , the control is not passed to host1 after executing the script "xyz.sh" in host2 .

How to exit the session in host2 after executing the script xyz.sh ??

Thanks,
Pradeep

is working ?

Code:

"/home/user/prod_work/xyz.sh;

There's either one double quote too many or one too few... anyhow, the shell should complain.

Sorry..I actually pasted the code wrong ..It is

Code:

ssh user@$host2 "/home/user/prod_work/xyz.sh"

But even then the issue remains .

- what about contents of your script ?

Code:

# cat /home/user/prod_work/xyz.sh

- your ssh connection passwordless ?

What do you mean by 'return control'? What do you expect to happen? What happens?

Yes , the ssh connection is passwordless . I achieved that using the below :

SSH login without password

When I execute abc.sh in server "host1" , the shell script is executed till

ssh user@$host2 "/home/user/prod_work/xyz.sh" , but hangs after that . It does not continue to execute the next line (sh start.sh ) in host1 until I press Ctrl+C . That is what I mean by returning control .


Thanks,
Pradeep
