If you want the domainname, dnsdomainname or hostname -d seem better. The basename command is for finding the base name of a file. If the domainname is what you want, something like this would work: for i in server{1..2}; do ssh root@$i 'DNSNAME=$(hostname -d); echo $DNSNAME' done I presume you have other steps in between DNSNAME=... and the echo, otherwise you would just use ssh root@$i hostname -d. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I look up to the heaven's for a ray of hope to shine.
