Hello Howard,
I use execa in usera that will start an execb in cms-userb or a
shellscript in Linux.
When you do it in a pipe the execa will wait until the end of execb (or
shellscript) before continuing.  
The pipe will write the output of execb in a file.
So execa can continue depending on the content of this file.
 
                    |
 'pipe cms rexec .......   !',  
   'console !',                              
   '>> 'remote_exec' output a'                   
                    |
 
This logic works well for me every night.
If execb is a long running exec its possible that you have to code a
timeout for rexec.
But plan carefully ! REXEC can be a security risk !
I do it in a completly isolated network.

Betreff: Starting an exec on a remote machine


I'm running exec X on cms user 'A' 
 
I exec X has to start exec Y running on cms user 'B' and after exec Y
terminates it has to return control to the exec on cms user 'A'
 
I could use some suggestions as to the best way to do this.
 
Thanks
