- NEW
- ---
-
- - Added the following builtins:
-
- __DATE__ # Date in YYYYMMDD format
- __DATETIME__ # Date and time in YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format
- __HOSTNUM__ # Count of host being processed, starting at 1
- __TIME__ # Time in HHMMSS format
-
- - Added -E to redirect all stderr output to stdout instead,
-
- - Added -T timeout option (default is 15 sec).
-
- - Added -a to allow program to continue after file transfer error.
-
- - Added -l logging option. Defaults to /dev/null. This fixes the error
- that was previously being reported:
-
- "No handlers could be found for logger "paramiko.transport"
-
-
- CHANGES
- -------
-
- - Changed hostname separator from ':' to '-' when using the -G command.
-
- - The <HOSTNAME> and <HOSTSHORT> builtins have been replaced
- with the new builtins described above.
-
- - Error messages now more consistent and clear.
-
-
- BUG FIXES
- ---------
-
- - Fixed bug that prevented the proper dereferencing of HOSTNAME
- in file transfer specifications.
-
- - Fixed bug that prevented '.define' variables from being substituted
- in file transfer specifications.
-
- - Fixed bug that only recognized sudo invocations if they were the
- first statement on a command line. All instances of the string
- "sudo " will now force sudo password prompting and processing.
- That string is ignored if it appears inside single- or double quotes.
-
- - Fixed bug that intermittently occurred during password-based auth
- sessions because ssh-agent and key searching were still being used.
-
- - Fixed error reporting blowout when key-exchange auth fails.
-
-
- TODO
- ----
-
-
- - Add: .define foo = ! string
-
- - Recursive .define replacements with loop detection and explain how
- to use to override bultins.
-
- - Do testmode substitions.
-
- - Make note that all cmdfiles are read in and THEN evaluated at *runtime*:
-
- echo __HOSTNUM__
- echo __HOSTNAME__
- echo __HOSTSHORT__
- .define __HOSTSHORT__ = ozzie
-
- Runtime __HOSTSHORT__ == ozzie
-
- - Write a new section on builtins. Note that they are evaluated
- *locally* and are reevaluated for each new host being processed.
- e.g., Timestamp will change with a big list of hosts.
-
-
-
- sudoers Mode
- ------------
-
- - Capture bad password
- - Capture failed command output
- - Write the server noise, as it appears to stderr for debug purposes
- - Note in docs: In this mode it will HANG waiting for interactive input.
- - Note in docs: There is no separation between stdout and sterr in this mode
