Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting unable to pass value to user prompt from calling shell script Post 302676433 by Corona688 on Tuesday 24th of July 2012 02:40:21 PM

In what way does it not accept it?

Perhaps the input is coming too soon? ( sleep 1; echo path ) | ./INSTALL

Or perhaps the script actually reads from the terminal, not stdin? Look inside it to see how it prompts for the path. Perhaps there's a way it can be overrided without input at all.

NAME
sieveshell - remotely manipulate sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
sieveshell [--user=user] [--authname=authname] [--realm=realm] [--exec=script] server[:port] sieveshell --help DESCRIPTION
sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server. It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress. The following commands are recognized: list list scripts on server. put <filename> upload script to server. get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout delete <name> delete script. activate <name> activate script. deactivate deactivate all scripts. OPTIONS
-u user, --user=user The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials. -a authname, --authname=authname The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user). -r realm, --realm=realm The realm to attempt authentication in. -e script, --exec=script Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
