Thanks again Eric.. It works, sorry but i'm newbie in shell ;-) About the authentication problem, i checked /sys/log/auth, and i noticed that there are some lines with "no speaks for",like this:
fs name nov 13 18:50:09 tr-fail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (NODE ip address) -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] no speaks for fs name nov 13 18:50:10 tr-ok [EMAIL PROTECTED] (NODE ip address) -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] this happens when i try: cpu -h NODE could it be the problem? thanks, Armando > > I did it and it works, but do you have any idea why i can do it from > > file server as bootes but not from terminal as armando? > > there's probablly something wrong in your authentication setup. > > > fs name% cpu -h NODE -c 'name=(equal sign)cat ''#c/sysname''; > > echo' > > cpu -h node -c 'name=`{cat ''#c/sysname''}; echo do something with $name' > > - erik
