Input required for telnet in script
Guru,

I am trying to use telnet in unix script.
And it's asking password after executing telnet command in script.

But I don't want to have manual intervention over there.
So is it possible to pass password for telnet from script itself.
What I am doing right now is something like this.


telnet locahost 2233 | sleep 5 < cat tmp

And tmp is having password for the telnet host.

Thnx in advance.

Regards,
gander_ss

Refer the manuals and prepare& try the script. There are plenty of examples on how to do expect scripting.
