So I figured out it was the echo -e in my script making everything not work.
The get_hosts script has now been modified to just return the best
server. alkisg in #ltsp and gadi from #ltsp helped me figure all of that
out.
Here is the current get_hosts script
#!/bin/sh
max_rank=-1
max_server=''
for server in $MY_SERVER_LIST; do
rank=$(nc $server 9571 | sed -n 's/rating://p')
if [ "$rank" -gt "$max_rank" ]; then
max_rank="$rank"
max_server="$server"
fi
done
echo "$max_server"
