i have been running a shell every night for about 2 years. when i
ugraded the OS to NeXtStep 3.0, i started having this problem.
the shell does the rsh and then does half of the next echo and then
stops.
this is the program.
#!/bin/sh -x
$UCB/rsh diva /usr/cleo/answer.sh
echo '::::::::::back:on:amy::::::::::::::::' # stops halfway here.
$UCB/rcp diva:/usr/cleo/csidata.dat /tmp/data.csi
this is the output:
{FS=":"}{print $1}
HOURS=18
+ [ 18 -lt 4 ]
+ [ 154989 -lt 50000 ] #last line of answer.sh
+ echo ::::::
::::::
notice the echo only does the first six characters. i've tried other
characters and it only prints the first six. btw, this only happens
durring cron, from a manual startup it runs right through.
is this wierd or what?
joe.
