Re^2: Expect OpenSSH sudo login is failing

Well since I am passing in several arguments, and the password contains spaces, that is where I'm using the escapes:

In the example below, the final argument is the root password that contains spaces

user@host:> perl perlscript.pl one two three four root\ pass\ word
[download]

</blocktext>

btw, I have tested the password when manually connected to the remote system and the password is correct

I suspect that I may have found the root cause, at least it is 'kind of' working now that I have made the following change: `[ qr/$rootpassword/ => sub { shift->send("$password\n");} ],` [download] Changed to: `[ qr/$rootpassword/ => sub { shift->send("$rootpassword\n");} +],` [download] So it may have in fact been the wrong password	[reply] [d/l] [select]
