Re: Net::Telnet timed out when logging in

Hello!

Update: additional info to glide's post below...

See in the Net::Telnet documentation about the last_prompt and dump_log methods.

I like to set my own prompt. That way I always know what I should expect. As mentioned in this node Re: Net::Telent - How to get the prompt displayed after login using telnet?...

To see what the prompt is, use the last_prompt method.

$string = $obj->last_prompt;
$prev = $obj->last_prompt($string);

To set the prompt to your choosing...

$host->login( $username, $password );
my $prompt = "_MYPROMPT_";
$host->prompt("/$prompt\$/");
$host->cmd("prompt = $prompt");
[download]

Since I don't exactly what you're doing... you might also want to take a look in the documentation under the Connecting to a Remote MS-Windows Machine section.

Hope it helps..
