main part of script given below

ssh noor@$i /home/noor/login.sh >>/syslogs/logins/$i.$DATE

plz advise on this

Hi:

If we can assume that the directory contains only files you want to mail, then you could do something simple like:

#!/usr/bin/sh
cd /path || exit 1
for FILE in $(ls)
do
mailx -s "Please review" himacs < ${FILE}
done

...which would send one file per mail.

Regards!

HI James,

Thanx for the reply..

Instead of writing new script ,can we add mailx command with the below script..

ssh noor@$i /home/noor/login.sh >>/syslogs/logins/$i.$DATE

so that with single line or script, the all works be done.like executing login script,directing otput to a folder and again sending the same with mailx..
