I have a python script (not created by me), let's call it myscript, which I call with several parameters. If I don't provide the --password parameter, the script will ask the user to input the password.
So I run the script like this:
That makes it ask for a password and wait for user input. If I enter the wrong password an error message will be displayed.
I want to pipe to this script some preset text to enter as the password, so that I can mimic entering an invalid password by hand.
This unfortunately doesn't generate the same behaviour, as if it would be manually entered.
Can I simulate this behaviour with pipes/redirecting output? Why doesn't it work? I expect that the 'wrongpassword' text will be entered when the script asks for the password, but it seems I'm wrong.
Is anyone piping commands to ex from scripts?
I.E. echo '%s/change this/to that/\nwq' | ex file.name

Hi,
I'm trying to wrap my head around piping in C - I've got a small C program that forks and pipes stuff from the child process to the parent process.
Currently the child process calls a C program that squirts out random numbers which then pipes the result to the parent process.

Hi all. I am using procmail to deliver an email to a script I am developing. Procmail delivers the email to the script on standard input. I imagine this is the same as piping input from a command into the script. Hence I've been testing my script by running

skeyinit
SKEYINIT(1) BSD General Commands Manual SKEYINIT(1)NAME
skeyinit -- change password or add user to S/Key authentication system
SYNOPSIS
skeyinit [-sxz] [-k passphrase] [-n count] [-p password] [-t hash] [user]
DESCRIPTION
skeyinit initializes the system so you can use S/Key one-time passwords to login. The program will ask you to enter a secret pass phrase;
enter a phrase of several words in response. After the S/Key database has been updated you can login using either your regular password or
using S/Key one-time passwords.
skeyinit requires you to type a secret password, so it should be used only on a secure terminal.
OPTIONS -k passphrase
Use pass phrase passphrase instead of asking for one to be entered.
-n count
Start the skey(1) sequence at count (default is 100).
-p password
Use password password instead of asking for one to be entered.
-s allows the user to set the seed and count for complete control of the parameters. To do this run skeyinit in one window and put in
your count and seed; then run skey(1) in another window to generate the correct 6 english words for that count and seed. You can
then ``cut-and-paste'' or type the words into the skeyinit window.
-t hash
Selects the hash algorithm to use. Available choices are md4 (the default), md5, or sha1.
-x Displays one-time password in hexadecimal instead of ASCII.
-z Allows the user to zero their S/Key entry.
user The username to be changed/added. By default the current user is operated on, only root may change other user's entries.
FILES
/etc/skeykeys database of information for the S/Key system.
