System name: cloudy.mit.edu
Type and version: SPARC/5 8.2.10 (with mkserv)
Display type: cgsix
What were you trying to do?
Run a command in a remote shell.
What's wrong:
There's diagnostic output going to stdout instead of stderr.
Notice below that the error is the only thing that *doesn't*
go to standard error:
cloudy.mit.edu# rsh noc hostname
Couldn't authenticate to server: Bad sendauth version was sent
Trying krb4 rsh...
whos-there
cloudy.mit.edu# rsh noc hostname > /tmp/out
Trying krb4 rsh...
What should have happened:
The error message should have gone to stderr, where it would
refrain from confusing shell scripts.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
