rexec

Mark Brook_3 — Wed, 04 May 2005 15:31:05 GMT

I have a script on our NT box which when finishes, needs to call another script on Unix.

I have managed to get rexec to work on NT to call basic scripts ie bdf has a test. But the main script doesnt work. It looks like an terminal emulation problem. Does anybody know a way around this problem?

Thanks

Hello,

It's very hard to answer you question because you supplied too little information. Can you please post there the script that you are trying to execute and the part that does not work or maybe the error message?

Alex.

The only thing I can think of that would involve terminal emulation is that you are running interactive terminal commands at at the Unix system. This can never be done in batch scripts as there is no terminal. I suspect that you are using bdf to see how much space is left on the Unix system. Remember that pipe symbols and redirection symbols must be escaped. But we can help a lot more if you post the commands you're trying to run through rexec.
