that is the log, and the waitfor()'s came out of teh documentation letter by letter, but since this currently doesnt work, im up for recoding it... i will add those to my list of lines to be evaluated for dumping.

but that is beside the point, the program hangs wainting for the password which i thought i told it to send...

I may be missing something here but aren't you waiting for `/new password:` [download] and from what I can see from debug() you are getting `Enter l+ogin(NIS+ ) password` [download] I don't think the condition `$telnet->waitfor('/new password: ?$/i') or report_error("ERROR", "No p +assword prompt found, contact Information Technologies: ");` [download] Is being met...waitfor() is just sitting there waiting for that prompt to match and it isn't so you never get to `$telnet->print($new_password);` [download] Of course, I haven't tried it on a real machine but this looks to me to be the possible cause of your quandry.
