PROJECT: meta
VERSION: 0.31SYNOPSIS
package foo;
use Meta::Baseline::Rsh qw();
my($resu)=Meta::Baseline::Rsh::rsh($demo,$verbose,$target,$host,$command);DESCRIPTION
This package can do correct rsh execution, both on pcs and on unices (current host included...). This is supposed to handle the following cases: 0. the remote machine is the current machine (dont rsh). 1. the remote machine is the a unix machine (do rsh with a unix wrapper so you'll get the right return code...). 2. the remote machine is an NT machine (do rsh with an NT wrapper so you'll get the right return code...).
FUNCTIONS
rsh($$$$$)
cook_rsh($$$$)
TEST($)FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
- rsh($$$$$)
-
This is the baseline version of rsh. Why is there such a version ? because when you issue a command from rsh and you built the command on some host there is no gurantee that this command will look exactly the same and execute properly on all other hosts that work with the baseline. This is especialy true if the command involved is doing development builds...:) Return value for this function is 1 for success and 0 for failure.
- cook_rsh($$$$)
-
This does a cook simulation of an rsh. Cook is not treating rsh right cause it thinks that rsh is not a good enough software. But since we are writing the rsh wrapper and our wrapper is good we want to avoid rsh'ing when the host to rsh is the current host etc... Therefore we get the weird cook executiong lines, analyze them, and execute them as if we were just a regular dumb rsh. We ofcourse call our own version of rsh which is implemented in this modules to handle current, linux and pc hosts correctly.
- TEST($)
-
Test suite for this module. The way it does it is just to run the routine for a couple of random host names.
