I'm not sure if or how this ever worked before - what is supposed to happen is that the shell script in $cmdfile is put into the file /test.sh on the guest, then /test.sh is executed.

" around the whole thing fixed it. --- scripts/nwfilter/240-no-arp-spoofing.t | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/nwfilter/240-no-arp-spoofing.t b/scripts/nwfilter/240-no-arp-spoofing.t index 141fb92..45f790a 100644 --- a/scripts/nwfilter/240-no-arp-spoofing.t +++ b/scripts/nwfilter/240-no-arp-spoofing.t @@ -91,11 +91,11 @@ my $ssh = Net::OpenSSH->new($guestip, password => $tck->root_password()); # now generate a arp spoofing packets -diag "generate arpspoof"; +diag "generate arpspoof script"; my $cmdfile = <<EOF; -/usr/sbin/arpspoof ${spoofid} & +echo "/usr/sbin/arpspoof ${spoofid} & /bin/sleep 10 -kill -15 `/sbin/pidof arpspoof`' > /test.sh +kill -15 `/sbin/pidof arpspoof`" > /test.sh EOF diag "content of cmdfile:"; -- 2.13.6 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
