I'm having an issue when I run an SSH task. Once it is submitted, the subsequent tasks run without waiting for the SSH task to finish. Is there a way in VC to wait for completion of an SSH task?

It depends how you fork the command on the other side. Also, use Execute Command instead of Execute text.

I am using Send command. What does "fork the command" mean? I'm not familiar with that term.

I mean, for example, if you run the sleep command directly it will wait for completion. But if you create a new "thread" in Linux it will return right away. So, it depends on the function you run and how you run it.
