how do I handle ssh response with expect
I am trying to write an expect script that trys to telnet, if telnet fails, trys to ssh to a remote network devices.
The script works fine until the following is received :
spawn telnet 10.3.2.24
Trying 10.3.2.24...
telnet: connect to address 10.3.2.24: Connection refused
10.3.2.24 is not reachable!!
spawn ssh -l myname 10.3.2.24
The authenticity of host '10.3.2.24 (10.3.2.24)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is b1:z6:22:85:3a:a6:z0:ae:6d:b3:9d:f6:77:85:01:aa.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
Ive added
expect {continue connecting*} {send "yes\r"}
at different places within the telnet host not reachable section, but cant
get expect to respond.
Ive added the entire script below for those who may want to look at it.
#! /usr/local/bin/expect --
#
# Setup Log file that will contain all steps of the process.
#============================================================
puts "[exec clear]"
set nam "[ clock format [ clock seconds ] -format "%m%d%H%M" ].log"
log_file -a $nam
#
# Open Seedfile and setup log containing failed connections.
#=============================================================
set ifil [open "seedfileofips" r]
set ofil [open "[ clock format [ clock seconds ] -format "%m%d%H%M" ].err" w]
###
# Main Body. While reading the seedfile, telnet to site
# or ssh to site
#=============================================================
while { [gets $ifil host] >=0 } {
send_user "Standby ... Validating ... $host \n"
puts "[exec clear]"
set taclnam "myname"
set tacpswd "mypassword"
set timeout 30
spawn telnet $host
expect {
{telnet:*} {
puts "$host is not reachable!!"
spawn ssh -l myname $host
expect {password:*} {
send "mypassword\n"
expect ">"
send "en\n"
expect "word:*"
send "mypassword\n"
expect "#"
interact
continue
}
}
{timeout} {
puts ""
puts "$host timed out...Router is probably down!!"
expect eof
wait
return
}
{Unknown*} {
expect eof
wait
return
}
{sername:*} {
send "mypassword\n"
expect "ord:"
send "$mypassword\n"
expect ">"
send "en\n"
expect "assword:"
send "$mypassword\n"
expect "#"
interact
continue
}
}
}

mconnect
mconnect(1) User Commands mconnect(1)
NAME
mconnect - connect to SMTP mail server socket
SYNOPSIS
mconnect [-p port] [-r] [hostname]
DESCRIPTION
The mconnect utility opens a connection to the mail server on a given host, so that it can be tested independently of all other mail soft-
ware. If no host is given, the connection is made to the local host. Servers expect to speak the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) on
this connection. Exit by typing the quit command. Typing EOF sends an end of file to the server. An interrupt closes the connection immedi-
ately and exits.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-pport Specify the port number instead of the default SMTP port (number 25) as the next argument.
-r Raw mode: disable the default line buffering and input handling. This produces an effect similar to telnet(1) to port number 25.
OPERANDS
The following operand is supported:
hostname The name of a given host.
USAGE
The mconnect command is IPv6-enabled. See ip6(7P).
