    Thanks to everyone who replied.

    The basic consensus is that you need to either echo the return code as the
    last command for remsh and assign it to a variable :

    rval=$(remsh "somecommand;echo $?")

    Or do some fancy processing where the script being processed creates an
    output file that is then scanned.

            Does anyone know of a way to retrieve the return code of a script
    run via
            the remsh command?

            What I mean is I'm on hostA and run remsh hostB <somescript> I want
    to get
            the return code of somescript, not the remsh command.
