Hi there. There is a shell script:

Code: #!/bin/bash ARGS=`(grep -i $1 old.txt || grep -i $1 new.txt) |awk 'BEGIN {FS=","}{print "\x27" $5 "\x27"}' | tr "\n" " "` /usr/bin/expect -- << EXPECTEND spawn -noecho myssh myhost.localnet log_user 0 expect root log_user 1 send "/home/one.pl $ARGS\r" set val $expect_ou

Shell Scipt: temp.sh <code> su - <$username> expect pass.exp <code>

Expect script: pass.exp #!/usr/bin/expect -f # Login ####################### expect "Password: " send "<$password>\r"

it comes up with Password: but doesnt take password passed throguh file.

Hi. Here is beginning of my script

Code: #!/usr/local/bin/expect -- set timeout 15 spawn /usr/local/account.sh -n modify expect "Password:" {send "mypassword\r"} But due to some terminal control sequences (or something else, dunno exactly) my password prompt is looking like this:
