Hi there,
aliases used with trailing "parameters" don't seem to work if called
remotely (via rsh or ssh).
Provided you defined an alias for user "remoteUser" on Host
"remoteMachine" which resolves to "/usr/local/bin/myScript
fixedParameter". This is the output of a sample session:
[root@localMachine] /export/home/root #  su - localUser -c "ssh -i
myKey remoteUser@remoteMachine '. ~/.zprofile;myAlias parameter'"
zsh: myAlias not found
[root@localMachine] /export/home/root #
 
Even if you prefix the alias call with "=" (equal sign) it doesn't work
although the error message differs.
 
[root@localMachine] /export/home/root #  su - localUser -c "ssh -i
myKey remoteUser@remoteMachine '. ~/.zprofile;=myAlias parameter'"
zsh: no such file or directory: /usr/local/bin/myScript fixedParameter
[root@localMachine] /export/home/root # 
 
Is there a way to fix that?
 
Thanks in advance
