2006/12/20, Dukelow, Don <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I'm going into a "while" loop with a list of servers and need to execute a
remote command and bring back the output.  Doing a "qx/remsh <server name>
<my script/;" doesn't  bring back the output.  I'm sure this can be done
but
how?

What about pipe'ing the output of your program to Perl? Check the (untested)
code below.

<code>
foreach my $host (@hosts) {
   open my $remsh, "remsh $host < script |" or die $!;
   my $output;
   {
       local $/;
       $output = <$remsh>;
   }
   print "$output";
   close $remsh or warn $!;
}
</code>

You also has the option to use a secure shell instead, and then
Net::SSH::Perl[1] comes to rescue you.

Hope this helps!
