I have two machines (both running linux 1.0.8). I try to do the
following
command "rsh machine_name ls" and "rsh -n machine ls" (I think that was the
flag to close standard in) but after the command gives me the directory
listing it
from the machine the prompt does not come back. It just sets there waiting
for
something. I have to type return for it to continue and give me
a prompt. Is this a bug of some kind or is it something I'm doing.
I have also tried later kernels and they exibited the same behavior.
I realize this is a very trivial example, however, what I am actually trying
to
do is execute a shell script which goes to all the machines in /etc/hosts
and tries
to stop a certain process (if it is running). This works great for the first
machine
in the /etc/hosts file but then it just sets there and will not continue on
with
the rest of the commands in the file as its waiting for the return or
something???
Is this a bug or do I have something wrong???
