Hi. I made a script that spawns a remote shell or runs a local shell whether it's on the current machine or not:

#!/bin/bash
# By:  benoror <[email protected]>
#
# spawns a remote shell or runs a local shell whether it's on the current machine or not
# $1 = hostname

if [ "$(hostname)" == "$1" ]; then
    bash
else
    ssh "$1.local"
fi

For example, if I'm on server1:

./spawnshell.sh server1   -> runs bash
./spawnshell.sh server2   -> ssh to server2.local

I want that script to run automatically in separate tabs in GNU Screen, but I can't make it run, my .screenrc:

...
screen -t "@server1"  1   exec /home/benoror/scripts/spawnshell.sh server1
screen -t "@server2"  2   exec /home/benoror/scripts/spawnshell.sh server2
...

But it doesn't works, I've tried without 'exec', with -X option and a lot more. Any ideas ?
