Hello,
I've noticed that stdout doesn't seem to be properly
redirected when a non-cygwin program is executed via rsh.
You can easily observe the problem. For that, compile your
favorite hello world program with and without the no-cygwin
flag:
home $ gcc -o hello_cygwin hello.c
home $ gcc -o hello_nocygwin -mno-cygwin hello.c
Then run the two binaries with rsh:
home $ rsh localhost hello_cygwin
Hello world
home $ rsh localhost hello_nocygwin
home $
As you can see, the stdoud of the non-cygwin program is not
redirected to the remote terminal. This can be worked around
by piping stdout to the cat command:
home $ rsh localhost "hello_nocygwin | cat"
Hello world
home $
