Hi,
I've looked up the list archive and there doesn't seem to be any
answer to this problem, the "depends" doesn't work with the "conn" test.
I have a bunch of remote kiosks connected via vpn and other means.
Some I can ping and some I can't. I can always ssh to them, therefore ssh is the main connectivity test for all them.
I'm trying make those test dependent on our internet connection.
In my bb-hosts file, I've added www.yahoo.com as a host and added
depends=(ssh:www.yahoo.com/conn) to the kiosk machine definition in the
bb-hosts file.
In order to test that, I setup hosts foo and bar in my lab, defined the,as follow:
x.x.x.x foo x.x.x.x bar # ssh noconn depends=(ssh:foor/conn)
I unplug foo and bar's network cable, and sometimes later I get a page regarding the ssh on bar
interestingly, bar's ssh test history shows this:

Anyone using the conn test as a dependency out there ? Can anyone confirm that is does or does NOT work ?
Thanks
