Darryl Bowler:
|This may sound like a dumb question to ask, but...
|
|At work I have lots of devices that I want to log into but only can via
|telnet. I want to do this by a script of sorts, but the problem I have
|is how do I pass a password to telnet via a script.
The most convenient way I've found to do this is with Perl. I've been
using David Noble's Sock.pm and Telnet.pm modules, but as I can't seem to
track down where I got these to provide a pointer, you may just want to
start with the relevent FAQ entry instead:
