Using awk with rsh

[Mitanu Paul]

Hi,

I have tried to use awk with rsh, 

	rsh spica "ps -l | awk '{ print $4}'"

and here is what I get:

       F UID   PID  PPID CP PRI NI  SZ  RSS WCHAN    STAT TT  TIME COMMAND
20488200 109  2548  2547  1  15  0  96    0 kernelma IW   pc  0:00 -csh (csh)
20008000 109  2599  2548  0   1  0 292    0 select   IW   pc  0:05 emacs p2.pl


Question:
Is this a bug of awk or that of rsh? Is there something which I am missing?
Please send me e-mail at mitanu at top.cis.syr.edu
If there is enough interest, I'll post a summary.

I know the following:

	1. awk works OK on the remote machine. The command
		ps -l | awk '{ print $4}'
	   gives the desired output on spica.

	2. Commands like
		rsh spica "ps -l | wc"
	   work OK.


Thanks.
