Hello, First let me say hello since I am new to this list. Recently I downloaded and installed the c3 suite of python2 scripts so that I can execute commands on multiple unix nodes. What I am looking to do is determine when an ssh connection fails (either sshd has been stopped, the node is not in service, etc). I have been unable to find good documentation to help me resolve this issue. The message that I receive when ssh fails is this:
ssh: connect to host test.node.com port 22: Connection refused So I guess my question is this...are there any methods to determine the state of a socket connection (i.e connected, no connected, connection failed, etc). Thanks in advance, Shain -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
