There are a couple of problems here. First of all, using shell constructs like
'~' won't give the expected results as the environment in which the script
executes will be completely different from that of the local user. Use the
full path instead, like 'touch /home/rd/hello_from_rivendell_RN'. Secondly, by
default the 'rivendell' user/group won't have write access to your home
directory. Try something like this:
*** snip snip ***
cd
mkdir test
chmod 777 test
*** snip snip ***
Then, fire up RMLSend and do:
RN touch /home/rd/test/hello_from_rivendell_RN!
You should now see the expected file in the 'test/' directory.
Cheers!
