....something completely different! :-)

hi all!

we're running into a problem with remsh and quotes.  here's
an example:

run remsh.net.sys;info="uxb -l ctmsrv ctmjobs -cf
jbtest/pabcx60u -n 'uxb axa'"

Error:  This command takes no arguments except switch
arguments.
Argument: axa not allowed.
ctmjobs [-aAbcDtx] [-d {date}] [-f|-l|-o|-v {fileset}] [-n
{node}] [-V {numversions}]

from one of our unix systems, the above command works just
fine (so it's not an issue of improper syntax....).

it treats the second word in the quoted argument to the -n
option (axa) as a separate command argument, as though the
command were entered:
run remsh.net.sys;info="uxb -l ctmsrv ctmjobs -cf pabcx60u
-n 'uxb' axa"

does anyone have any insight...words of wisdom...plain ol'
help? :-)        - d
