Requirements
I'm running a shell script from one Unix server A which calculates the line count using "wc -l" of a file which resides in another unix server B.
I have tried the ssh also but i'm not very clear about it and its throwing error. The command I'm trying to use is:
ssh user1@serverB /temp/tmpdir/wc -l abc.txt
Please let me know how can i achieve the same using the shell script.
What error is it throwing?

Error is:
ksh: /temp/tmpdir/wc: not found
system

try...
ssh user1@serverB cat /path/to/abc.txt | wc -l
funksen

ssh -l user host "wc -l /path/to/abc.txt" works too
Thanks..
both the above command works ..
but what if i dont want the word count of that file and just want to make a check whether the file is present on the remote unix machine?
how to do that?
In addition to the previos query ... i have tried FTP also.
on 2 machines the connection and the script works fine. But on one machine it gives the following error:
ftp: connect: Connection refused
ftp: connect: Connection refused
What should I do?
