Running plink with user input interaction from vb.net
Hi there,

I am trying to run a .sh file with plink from vb.net.

I am now able to run the .sh on vb.net but i have a problem because the .sh script require user input:
The .sh is prompting a few question and require user to input y/n to proceed.

I am trying plink.standardinput.writeline("y") but it looks like this input is not feed to the .sh script but rather to the plink session after the .sh script ended.

Any idea about this or is there any other way for this? Smilie

Thanks,
SY

If you want an interactive ssh session, that is what putty is for.

Try ssh and expect. Search on google and you will find expect code or scripts to pass interactions via ssh.
Here is an example:
