thanks guys, I ended up going a different route. Instead of trying to initiate an ssh or telnet session in the script I just did an rsh. This ultimately gave me what I was looking for, since the box I was testing was oddly rebooting into single user mode, so if my rsh (telnet or ssh) failed I...

# more mylog kill: 16760: no such process I'm now thinking that the script is returning a failed run code, since the kill $! is failing to find a process. Is this more a problem with the writing of the script as opposed to running it out of cron?

I tried using the first two suggestions: specifying full ssh path adding su - root -c /path/to/myscript to cron Script still fails. I'll have to install nmap to try the nmap option, since I dont have it by default w/ solaris10.

When I run the below script from the cmd line it works as expected. The script will accurately detect whether an ssh connection is available. But, when I put this same script in cron it fails every time, even when an ssh connection is available. Any ideas? Or possibly a better method to...

Just noticed your question. not a typo, just how I am passing around some of the data...

Thanks I'll try that. You mentioned the indentation. Is using it needed when scripting or is strictly for being easier to read?

Edited code: #!/bin/ksh while true do echo " 1) View ALL Failed Save Sets 2) Create Tickets for SERVER1 Failed Save Sets q) Quit" echo "" read input case $input in 1) clear echo "" echo "Listing of All Failed Save Sets:" echo "" awk '{print $0}' data.dat;; 2) clear...

I had removed the calls of ./script as well as add a break, but it did not work, so I just went back to my original code. I will try your suggestions again, post the edited code and tell you the results. thanks.

Well...I tried the suggestions you all noted above, but I am still unable to exit from the script back to a prompt. I also had a coworker look at it and he too was not able to get it to exit. I will post my script again on the hopes of generating some new ideas. Thanks. #!/bin/ksh while...

Thanks Annihilannic - worked perfectly.

This is a follow-up to my original post. The awk PHV worked well, and it now looks like this: awk -F":" ' $4!=s{if(n>1)print " server:"s": All";n=0} {print;s=$4;++n} END{if(n>1)print "'date' server:"s": All"} ' tmp.server > tmp2.server My question is, how can I modify the...

I was playing around with adding the break. Do I need one break per while true or one per select?

I removed the lines of the script calling itself and it works just the same - you were right they were unnecessary entries. However, I still cannot quit from the menu. I will look into the break command unless you guys have another suggestion.

Thanks guys, I'll look into your suggestions.

Below is an example of a case script I'm using. The script works as expected, except for the q (quit/exit) option; it won't exit. Actually the script does exit properly if I choose q before choosing any other option. Unlike if I choose 2, then try and q, it wont work. I believe it has...

thank you guys

Sure. The lines of my input.file are currently arranged/sorted by server name. The server name is specified in the second field ($2), this is with the fields separated by the " : ". As in the example: $1 $2 $3 homer: server1:/var/legato/rman/bin/ebuarch.PRTLDEV homer...

First off, this site is such an amazing resource. Thanks to you all. Suppose I have an input.file that looks like: homer: server1:/var/legato/rman/bin/ebuarch.PRTLDEV homer: server1:/var/legato/rman/bin/ebuarch.PRTLPROD homer: server1:/var/legato/rman/bin/ebuarch.PRTLQA homer...

My case is within a while-do-done. If this is what you were getting at, can you please explain further how this would work? thanks. while true do read input case $input in 1) option1 2) option2 3) clear grep marge data2.email > data3.marge echo "" echo "Listing of MARGE Failed...

Below is a portion of a (ksh) case script. The way the menu works now is, via the select statement I can only choose one of the numbered options at a time. Is there a way to choose multiple options? For example, if I run the script and choose option 3, I will be presented with a list that...
