Can 'spawn' command be used more than once in an expect script ?
Can 'spawn' script be used more than once in a given expect script ??
What I'm trying to do is, first log-into a remote server through one 'ssh' spawn com and then from there log-into another server using a secod 'ssh' spawn command. But this approach is not working... the second ssh attempt fails saying something to the effect that the address given is in-correct.
OTOH, when I use the 'send' com to get that 2nd ssh executed, it works! However, I would like to use a second spawn to login than send....if that's possible.
So far , i've only seen expect scripts with singular spawn statements.. has anyone tried with two or more than that in a single script ?

ssh-argv0
SSH-ARGV0(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ARGV0(1)
NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling
SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command]
hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name]
[-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is
equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally.
OPTIONS
See ssh(1).
FILES
See ssh(1).
