Hi Patrick, When I do the test on a RedHat, I get a rc 1 !.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ cat a.sftp get tuut.test [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sftp -b a.sftp localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: sftp> get tuut.test Couldn't stat remote file: No such file or directory File "/home/donypie/tuut.test" not found. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ echo $? 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ But I have received news from Sun concerning this problem and they said that : Openssh sftp has changed in release 3.6p1, and *this* is why we are seeing different behaviour e.g. on a Linux distribution which bundles a sufficiently recent OpenSSH suite. These newer sftp binaries will indeed exit with a nonzero status when one of the batched subcommands did not succeed as requested, and of course they will still do so when they encounter a protocol-level error. I hope they will implement these new features in SSH Sun as soon as possible. Thanks everybody. Pierre. -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Morris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: vendredi 5 mai 2006 21:27 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: FW: SSH/SFTP rc problem in Solaris.
