My first thought is that you need to introduce a while statement in your expect script to read the troublesome -----More-- text and send a carriage return when it happens.

Hi all,
I'm trying to run the sipp simulator in crontab but after some attempt I came to the conclusion that for some reason this isn't possible (maybe due to sipp interactive nature).
This is confirmed by these posts.
Now I'm trying to launch sipp from an expect script that runs in crontab.

fwb_pix
fwb_pix(1) Firewall Builder fwb_pix(1)
NAME
fwb_ipt - Policy compiler for Cisco PIX
SYNOPSIS
fwb_pix -fdata_file.xml [-V] [-dwdir] [-i] [-v] [-xc] [-xt] object_name
DESCRIPTION
fwb_pix is firewall policy compiler component of Firewall Builder (see fwbuilder(1)). Compiler reads objects definitions and firewall
description from the data file specified with "-f" option and generates resultant Cisco PIX configuration file. The configuration is writ-
ten to the file with the name the same as the name of the firewall object, plus extension ".fw".
The data file and the name of the firewall objects must be specified on the command line. Other command line parameters are optional.
OPTIONS
-f FILE
Specify the name of the data file to be processed.
-d wdir
Specify working directory. Compiler creates file with PIX configuration in this directory. If this parameter is missing, then PIX
configuration will be placed in the current working directory.
-v Be verbose: compiler prints diagnostic messages when it works.
-V Print version number and quit.
-i When this option is present, the last argument on the command line is supposed to be firewall object ID rather than its name
-xc When output file name is determined automatically (i.e. flags -o or -O are not present), the file name is composed of the cluster
name and member firewall name rather than just member firewall name. This is used mostly for testing when the same member firewall
object can be a part of different clusters with different configurations.
-xt This flag makes compiler treat all fatal errors as warnings and continue processing rules. Generated configuration script most
likely will be incorrect but will include error message as a comment; this flag is used for testing and debugging.
