Subject: Why can't I get my remote host into a variable?
Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2005 19:40:07 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <438E4667.6000307@tntluoma.com> (raw)


Zsh 4.2.5 on FreeBSD.  I'm ssh'ing into the FreeBSD machine.

I'm trying to get my remote host into a variable REMOTE_HOST.  I have 
tried both of these in .zshenv:

REMOTE_HOST=`who am i | awk '{print $NF}'|tr -d '(|)'`

$ who am i
luomat           ttyp0    Nov 30 19:34 (192.168.1.103)

That works on the commandline, but when I try it in .zshenv I get 
"19:34" or whatever the timestamp is for that session.

Thinking I would be clever, I tried this

TTYSHORT=`echo $TTY |colrm 1 8`
REMOTE_HOST=`w | fgrep $TTYSHORT | awk '{print $3}'`

but that does not work either.

Anyone know how to get this to work in .zshenv?
