not sure there.

Hey there,

the script command logs all screen output (from the terminal) to a file, so i may review later on.

is there a different command that may do this?

this is what i got for the script (.common file):

telnet 6.20.9.35
Admin
xxxx

this is what i get when i run it in the terminal:

rastas-macbook:~ Rasta$ /Users/Rasta/Desktop/login1.common ; exit;
Trying 6.20.9.35...
Connected to cust-6.20.9.35.switchn.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

/Users/Rasta/Desktop/login1.common: line 2: Admin: command not found
/Users/Rasta/Desktop/login1.common: line 3: Admin1LV082008: command not found
logout

[Process completed]




any ideas?

J.
