For a variety of strange reasons, I've set up an arrangement by which a server responds with "Hi there" if I connect on a specified port. This is a typical transaction:
Now, I'm trying to use a quick and dirty way to do this concurrently, using xarg's -P (or max-procs, in some cases) option. Once this works, I'll increase the seq value, add -P concurrency, and be happy. The problem, though, is that I can't get the server's response to show up. Here's a trivial case:
So, the "1" should be discarded, as there is no DISCARD string in the command called by xargs, and the telnet command should be run. But, this trivial case should be the same thing as just running the telnet command alone since it's wrapped up in a negligible xargs. But, for some reason, the server's "Hi there" doesn't appear. Any idea why that is? I've tried redirecting stderr to stdout on the chance that it's some oddity in the way xargs handles errors, but no luck. I've also placed the telnet command into a little one-liner script and called that instead, without changing the output. Any suggestions? I've scratched my head many times. It didn't help... Many thanks in advance.

Somewhat long story:
I have a simple Perl CGI script that uses Expect to Telnet to a device and grab some data, and then spits it back to Perl for display on the Webpage.
This works for many devices I've tried, but one device just fails, it keeps rejecting the password on this device, only... (1 Reply)
