Hello,

I came across the fork bomb : ( ) { : | : & } ; : ,and wondering if anyone could suggest a way to run this script on a remote PC.
I've setup an intranet as part of my dissertation(server testing),and wish to test my ubuntu server using a fork bomb from a ubuntu client.I've installed LAMP server and osCommerce on the server and would like to see how the machine responds to the fork script.I've installed couple of load testing tools on the client and am able to send HTTP Get requests to the server,like wise,how do i use the fork bomb to spawn child processes on the server using python?

Cheers,
David

I've used a module called paramiko to open a tunnel into another machine and execute commands remotely. It worked very nicely.
