in reply to writing output to screen with telnet.pm
Hi.
Firstly, I've never used Net::Telnet. But, after looking at the docs, this might be an option:
When $obj->waitfor is called in list context, the "characters before the match and the matched characters are returned".
So, maybe calling it like:
my ( $prematch, $match ); ( $prematch, $match ) = $t->waitfor( '/login:/' ); print $prematch, $match; $t->print( 'admin' ); ( $prematch, $match ) = $t->waitfor( '/Password:/' ); print $prematch, $match; $t->print( 'admin1' );
Will show you what's been recieved.
Alternatively, you might just spatter in some debug-like statements.
print "Sending username...\n"; $t->waitfor( '/login:/' ); $t->print('admin'); print "Sending password...\n"; $t->waitfor( '/Password:/' ); $t->print( 'admin1' );
Lastly, consider using the login method and checking its return value to see if it succeeded or not, or even using input_log and dump_log to debug.
Oh, and i noticed that your password match is using an uppercase "P", i think, generally, it should be lowercase. *shrug*
Good luck.
