Hi

we have a script which establish connection to two other UNIX server through ssh for transfering files

There was no exit command after each ssh connection

the script ends with done

whether this will close all the ssh connection established throgh script which running under cron every 10 min

if we are not using the exit statement how the cron job started ssh will close


is there any way to trace what are ssh section started by cron process

and we can trace at a time how many ssh sections are present which estalished by the script

please help!!!!!!!

grep for the process name of the script first, then based on the PID of the process, do a ptree PID. It will show the child process and its ids. From there you might be able to determine

thanks will try....

cAn please comment on the following that when the scrpt excection ends whether the ssh connections will close or not....

The best method is for you to use an exit at the end of your script or have a test condition to check for "Live" PIDs. If PID is still existent after operation is completed, use kill -9 PID <- this can be even used WITHIN your script if you wish
