Timeout
If you want the expect script to pause / wait for a certain amount of time
then just add
sleep 1
at the appropriate position
This will cause the prg to wait for 1 second.
You could also force expect into conservative mode, read the man page
on your system for information on this.
This will make the prg wait 1/10 sec between each character being sent.

Hi All,
Here is my Expect script, I don't get any error message when I run it. But the file never goes to other system? I also paste the output screen below.
When I run the script, the script runs so fast. But when I do it manually, it takes about 10 minutes for the file to transfer.

gesftpserver
gesftpserver(8) System Manager's Manual gesftpserver(8)
NAME
gesftpserver - Green End SFTP Server
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/gesftpserver [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
gesftpserver implements the SFTP protocol. It is normally run as an SSH subsystem but can be run in other contexts if necessary.
CONFIGURING OPENSSH
By default, OpenSSH will use its native SFTP server in response to requests for the SFTP subsystem. To use gesftpserver instead, add a
suitable Subsystem command to sshd_config (and remove the existing one if present). For example:
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/gesftpserver
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS
gesftpserver supports up to version 6 of the SFTP protocol and the following extensions:
newline
Reports the server's newline convention to the client.
space-available
Equivalent to df(1).
supported
v5 capability details
supported2
v6 capability details
text-seek
Used for resuming text file downloads.
vendor-id
Reports server name and version to client. gesftpserver reports a vendor of "Green End" and a server name of "Green End SFTP
Server".
versions
Lists available versions.
version-select
Select version.
posix-rename@openssh.org
Provides POSIX rename semantics even in pre-v5 SFTP.
