From my perspective i will go on using VNC its much reliable then telnet. Im using RealVNC (www.realvnc.com)

Hi ,

I have a much similar question asked in the first post.
In my script(which is in HP UX server) I want to connect to another Unix IBM server and run a script there.After this i want my control back to the first server(The HP).

Is this possible?

I tried something like:
code:
I am getting connected to IBM server but its not taking my echo values as username and password.
How can I resolve this issue?

The following is the output I am getting(I am doing ctrl C after the promt for login remains for long time):

You should really consider SSH for this kind of thing. Set up SSH keys with an empty passphrase (or better use ssh-agent - but anything is better than telnet ). Then you can do:

Code:

echo "I am on server A"
ssh serverb /path/to/remote_script.sh
echo "I am back on server A"

Transmitting your credentials in the clear over a telnet session is a BadThing (TM).

hi ZB,

Thanks for your reply.
The reason why I am opting for telnet is, SSH is not configured in any of the servers (I am not authorised to do so)

I am getting the following output while trying your code:

i strongly suggest you setup ssh and use that ... your error looks more like a setup issue than an actual prohibition since telnet is still enabled ...

however, if ssh cannot be used --- why don't you use remsh instead of telnet? this way you avoid transmitting passwords in clear text ... make sure $HOME/.rhosts is setup properly and you should be good to go ...


do "man remsh" for more info ...


good luck!

I'm not sure if windows can do bash like scripting but this is how I do it in a Unix environment:
(sleep 3; echo "user"; sleep 3; echo "password"; sleep 3; echo "some cmd") | telnet 68.253.14.129;

I got the idea from this post: https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...#post302114365
