Hmm, what does your dump log say? does the prompt actually match? (sybase seems like a strange prompt to me...and you will want to escape the '?' if that is part of your prompt) and if so does your username and password match the default login prompts?

posting the output of the dump_log would be handy to debug.

I suspect you are not matching your original login prompt. Also you have 2 waitfors in sucession at the end of your script (separated by a print that has nothing to do with the telnet session) Why? you should only need one of them.

"Nothing is sure but death and taxes" I say combine the two and its death to all taxes!
