Hello all,
 
I am trying to run the following command using cygwin
on a remote node using ssh.
 
/bin/sh -c 'echo Number=\"1234567\"  >> /tmp/file1'
 
The command executes successfully but the  file has
content Number=1234567(double quotes missing) instead
of Number="1234567".
 
The same command works as expected when i run it from
red hat Linux.
 
Any idea on why this is happening.
 
thanks,
Prakash
