Hi ,

I have the following scenario where by i am accessing a windows machine running a command when the command finished and is sucessful it will return o
So i am cecking before i exit but I seem to always exit with return code 1

Any ideas why ?

telnet <windows machine ><<EOF

run some java within the windows machine !

echo the returncode is %errorlevel%

if %errorlevel% neq 0
exit 1

EOF

Hi Nano2,

Really just guessing at this, but is return code 1 showing because it is echoed as part of the script? Try:

if %errorlevel% neg 0
if %errorlevel% pos 1
exit
EOF

OR just:

if %errorlevel% neg 0
exit
EOF
