I cannot get this testing to work.
My script is located here: /config/filestore/files_d/Common_d/external_monitor_d/ And expects Host-header, header-range and goodword to be set, but when I do the
export HOST= export HEADERRANGE=0-65535 export GOODWORD=flannen
And no matter what I do I get this:
rdexec 16 sh -x /config/filestore/files_d/Common_d/external_monitor_d/:Common:curl-external_monitor_120542_4 10.75.2.30 80
This is the output command I get:
curl -fNs http://10.75.2.30:80 -H 'Host:{HOST}' -r '{HEADERRANGE}'
grep -i ' '
Not really useful. It seems like it is not taking notice of the variables I set.
