I have this block of code that i am running.
open(LIST,$List) or die "Can't read $List: $!"; while (<LIST>) { chomp(my $Server = $_); my $source1 = "C:/ChPass/phrase.txt"; my $dest1 = "//$Server/c\$/temp/phrase.txt"; print $dest1; my $command = qq(copy "$source1" "$dest1") or die "Couldn't copy $ +source1: $!"; $command =~ s#/#\\#g; system $command; print " I finished the first command.\n"; my $source2 = "C:/ChPass/ChPass.exe"; my $dest2 = "//$Server/c\$/temp/ChPass.exe"; my $command2 = qq(copy "$source2" "$dest2") or die "Couldn't c +opy $source2: $!"; $command2 =~ s#/#\\#g; print $command2; system $command2; print " I finished the second command.\n"; print $Server . "\n";

I am then calling on the exe that i copied over which is a compiled perl script. It is waiting for a server name and a caridge return. so i put $Server after the chpass.exe but i need a way to put in a caridge return so that it can see the server name.
system("//$Server/c\$/temp/ChPass.exe $Server"); print " I called the executable and it completed.\n"; }

Can someone tell me how i can simulate me hitting enter after the exe sees the server name. Thanks in advance.
