Hi, I'm running a command like this: for i in server1 server2;do ssh root@$i "`hostname`";done. However the hostname command always outputs the hostname of the server that the above command is run from. I'd like to know how to run this hostname command so that it actually runs on server 1, server2 etc.. Thanks Dan
Use the following for i in server1 server2;do ssh root@$i '`hostname`';done.Explanation: `hostname`, or $(hostname), is already evaluated on the source host by your shell (even inside of "...") , not on the target host.
