Hi,
on random days, my scripts which invoke commands on remote hosts through an
SSH connection (password-less, via exchange of keys) always return with exit
status 255.
Looking in man-page of "ssh", it says that it is supposed to return the exit
status of the remote command, or 255 if 'an error occured'.
Even if I do something like
ssh $remotehost "cd /tmp ; echo \$? ; pwd ; echo \$? " ; echo $?
I get as result
0
/tmp
0
255 <-- WHY ??
Even so bad that this morning all scripts returned 0 (zero) as exit statuses,
now suddenly 255.
How can I diagnose the real cause of this exit status, or is this a known bug
?
Running Solaris-9, between SF280R and V100's
TIA
Rob
