    We have a problem running a script using ssh which when run using rsh works ok.

    Could some one please help.

    The command is:

    ssh server """. .profile >/dev/null 2>&1; test_remote.pl -mode=ddf
    -data=paul"" 2>&1;echo ":\$?" "

    Which should create a directory on the remote server, it does not but
    if you use the same command with rsh it does.

    rsh server """. .profile >/dev/null 2>&1; test_remote.pl -mode=ddf
    -data=paul"" 2>&1;echo ":\$?" "

    The perl script called is below.

    #!/usr/bin/env perl -w
    use strict;
    use Getopt::Long;
    use File::Copy;

    my $mode = "";
    my $data = "";
    # check the command line options
    &GetOptions( "mode=s" => \$mode, "data=s" => \$data);
    die qq(usage: $0 -mode=<ddf|dwda> -data=<filename>\n)
            unless ($mode eq "dwda" || $mode eq "ddf");

    mkdir $data, 700 unless -d $data;

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Many Thanks in advance

    Paul
