I'm presuming PDSH opens up a bank of connections to nodes, starts up
remote processes, then closes the connections. It ripples along until
all processes are started.
With my handy, optimized infinite loop, the process is forked as a child
of my remote shell.
sshd: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
\_ ./loop
This connection is persistent unless I choose to detach loop.
Does PDSH leave listeners in order to reconnect and reap child processes
properly upon termination, or are they detached by necessity?
