Thanks for providing the example of exec. I have questions: Which system is the ant script running on? Is the <exec> also executing on that system?
I am looking for a way to remotely execute ant code on multiple systems and with multiple executions per system. I have gotten sshexec to work (once per script). rexec has issues, too. --glenn On 12/19/05, Rebhan, Gilbert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi, Rhino > > -----Original Message----- > From: Rhino [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, December 18, 2005 3:30 PM > To: Ant Users List > Subject: Re: Question re sshexec task > > /* > Could you possibly post a small example of the technique you're using? > I'm > not sure how to combine exec with ssh/scp.
