How do I send a password to a command I start with Perl's Expect.pm

$exp->send("string\n");

Of course, you haven't started any commands with Expect, so that's a very odd question to ask.

I'm not allowed to install another module(politics/not rights).

So if I post my code here, you can use it, but if I post on it on CPAN, you can't? That doesn't make any sense. Perhaps you could clarify why you think you can't install a module.

Because you don't have permission? You don't need special permissions.
Because you don't want to install it in the system directory? You don't have to install it in the system directory.
Because you're allergic to the .pm file extension? Rename the .pm files to .pl files.
Because you're allergic to the CPAN? Have someone copy the module from CPAN for you.
Because the code isn't in your version control system? Put it in your version control system.
Because your out of disk space? Get more disk space.

If it's any of the above, address the issue and install Net::SSH::Expect. If not, then maybe it's one of the following:

Because you can't use external code? Then we can't help you.

These lists are far from exhaustive. If your situation doesn't match, let me know what the situation is.

) I don't have root permission, off course it needs privilege permission beyond a simple user. ) This server don't have access to internet so (cpanm,local::lib,perlbrew) and installing Net::SSH::Expect isn't possible.	[reply]

off course it needs privilege permission beyond a simple user. Simple users can install modules. Like I said, you don't need special permissions to install a module. You can install modules into any directory. This server don't have access to internet Whatever means you use to place your script on the server can also be used to place the script known as the Net::SSH::Expect module.	[reply]
