[erlang-questions] remsh

[Jon Watte]

If I understand it correctly, "remsh" specifies to create an interactive
shell conneted to the remote node, but a command-line argument is evaluated
using the local node.
Try evaluating it as a rpc:call expression instead? You won't need a -remsh
at all then, instead passing the node argument to the rpc call.

Sincerely,

jw

whether we get there willingly or not, we shall soon have lower consumption
rates, because our present rates are unsustainable.
