Hello Friends,
I have to run a command on my unix box through a script running on my
windows m/c.
Here's my code which is nothing but the example in perldoc of the module :
use Net::Telnet ();
$username = "myusername";
$passwd = "mypasswd";
$t = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 10, Prompt => '/login \(dell001rs\): $/');
$t->open('my_machine_ip');
$t->login($username, $passwd);
@lines = $t->cmd("who");
print @lines;
Now, as per the module documentation , specifying the Prompt is very
essential if it is not like the default '/[\$%#>] $/ '
It searches through the input stream for the prompt and performs actions
accordingly.
If it is not able to find the prompt in the stream, it shall time-out
looking for the login prompt.
When I login to my machine , the login prompt is like :
login (dell001rs):
And after logging in the prompt becomes :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $
What should I add after "Prompt => " while creating a new session ?
No matter what I try it always aborts with the msg : "timed-out waiting for
login prompt at J:\net.pl line 10" :((
Thanx a lot
Aman

Subject: Remote script execution
Hello Friends,
I would be really grateful if someone could help me out with this.
I want to write a script that when executed will get lots of details from 10
different Unix(AIX) and Windows(XP) boxes and generate a report.
The details to be gathered about the machines include :
1) Names and versions of all the softwares on the machines.
2) Disk space usage.
Etc...
Please guide me how I could go about it...
I am not aware of how a script running on 1 machine take data from commands
that are to be run on other...(like rsh)
Thanks in advance
