The reason is that the ">>" are shell functions. The user defined actions
are not executed in a shell. An easy way around this is to simply write a
shell script that contains the full action, and have the user defined action
execute the script. The script will execute in a shell.

Subject: user defined actions on RS 3.2 (don't work)

Have an opened incident and wanted to know if anyone else
had user defined actions failing on RealSecure Solaris 3.2
engines?

Tried an executable first and then just tried

  echo hello >> filename

got nothing!! anyone else on the bleeding edge?
