Question KORN Shell - Spawn new shell with commands
I want to be able to run a script on one server, that will spawn another shell which runs some commands on another server..

I have seen some code that may help - but I cant get it working as below:


spawn /usr/bin/ksh
send "telnet x <port_no>\r"
expect "Enter command: "
send "LOGIN:x:x; \r"
expect "Enter command:"
send "LOGOUT; \r"
close

but this errors - I may be missing code etc, I honestly dont know. Can anyone help me? Or is there another way to do this?
I dont want to execute a script on the other server, I want to log on to it and type some commands, get the response and log off... Please note I log on to server on a specific port - this is not telnet.

Any help would be appreciated.
