Does someone know anything about autoexpect. My problem is when my autoexpect script ssh to another client, it just sits at the client's prompt and does not execute the next commands in the script. Is there some thing that I have to do force the script keep on going?
I can't access them to know which one is the one you may need due to a slow connection here. They're both good though :-)
A never presented HP world powerpoint doc that goes through the whole process.

Sandman, I am using autoexpect to create the excutable, but when the executable is created, the script stops at the command prompt after logging into the other server. It does not execute any commands after that even though the commands were executed in the autoexpect script.
Here is a copy of the script file that was created by autoexpect.
set timeout -1 spawn ssh dnmst0n match_max 100000 expect -exact "Last successful login for root: Wed Oct 26 10:40:05 2005 on ttyp4\r\r Last unsuccessful login for root: Wed Oct 26 09:17:47 2005 on ttyp1\r\r \r\r SCO OpenServer(TM) Release 6.0.0\r\r \r\r (C) Copyright 1976-2005 The SCO Group, Inc. and its suppliers\r\r All rights reserved.\r\r \r\r For complete copyright credits,\r\r enter \"copyrights\" at the command prompt.\r\r \r\r Good Morning - Welcome to dnmst0n\r \r ^[GD Good Morning - Welcome to dnmst0n\r ^[GE Good Morning - Welcome to dnmst0n\r \r ^[\[H^[\[Jdnmst0n#" send -- "cd /u/Informix\r" expect -exact "cd /u/Informix\r cd /u/informix?

Simplify your "expect/send" interactions by removing the "-exact" switch from the expect command and wildcarding the matches. Could you attach your autoexpect generated script instead of copying and pasting it.
Sandman, I am sorry to bother you again, but can you look at this autoexpect file that I created. I modified just like you had done the previous one, but it will not execute "tbtape -s"
