Hi,

I am trying to launch a host command to windows, the command is =
something like
"rsh myaixmachine -l myuser \"export PATH=3D/pvcsbindir:$PATH; vlog =
mypvcsarchive > tomyfile; echo\""

I would like to get the standard output for this command. But it does =
not work properly : I need to do <ENTER> in my Windows console window, =
and if I launch several such commands, it happens I am really stuck.

It works with simple commands to Windows. And it works also when I try =
some prepared command with `mycommand`

An idea to this problem ?

Regards,

PS. One of my simple tries

def rsh(myaixmachine, command)
@t =3D nil
s =3D "rsh " + myaixmachine + " -l myuser \"#{ command }\""
puts s
@pipe =3D IO.popen(s)
@t =3D @pipe.read
@pipe.close
@t
end

You can use net/telnet instead

require 'net/telnet'

c=%^export PATH=/pvcsbindir:$PATH; vlogmypvcsarchive > tomyfile; echo "^

s = Net::Telnet.new({"Host" => "myaixmachine")

s.login("myuser","password")

p s.command(c)


s.close

Thank you Rodrigo,

I have discovered that my example with IO.popen works fine if I use the -n
option of Windows' rsh.
(this option redirects the input of RSH on NULL)
