Example Script File for autologin with wait for special prompt before send

cem - Wed 09/05/2012 20:20:25 CEST +0200

Hi @all,
I want to establish ssh Session to different device. Before i send username and password i want to wait for a special prompt from the remote device.

It was not possible for me to create a valid script file. As i understood it right from the Forum the script file is a textfile, right?
But my script file do nothing??? send nothing!

Can someone send / post a script file for the case to wait for a special string, please. I tried lot of things but without success.
Thanks and Best Regards Cem

The script takes the form





eg:
login:
myusername
password:
myPas5w0rD

So when you connect with this script, the script will wait until it sees the first prompt "login:", and will then send "myusername", and will then wait until it see "password:" and will then send "myPas5w0rD", and so on. You can make this as long as you like. Each 2 line pair are handled in turn after the previous 2 line pair has been used.

Look at the web page http://www.9bis.net/kitty/?page=Logon%20script&zone=en
The autologin script feature can be used for TELNET authentication, not for SSH.

For your information authentication is fully part of the SSH protocol. That's why there are "username" and "password" in Connection/data config box.

This would be required if you are bouncing through boxes, so you might use a script like this:

$
ssh username@server
password:
mypassword
$
cd /opt/jboss


That sort of thing.

Thank you very much for the answers. The key point which was not clear to me was that i have to copy the needed string from the remote device also in the *.txt file. quite straightforward :).
One additional problem was that i use ssh.

But it works now. Thanks @all

Hi @all,
me again...
When I want to share the settings with other persons, then it seems to be mandatory that they install /copy the Files in the same place e.g C:/MyConnections. When they copy the file in D:/YourConnections it doesn?t work due to the reference doesn?t match anymore.

Where the settings are saved in kitty, or is there an possibility to modify/replace this afterwards easily without modify every scrip file reference. I checked the Windows registry fiels and ini Files but can?t find an entry.

sorry. I found the entry in ...\Softwarebis.com\Kitty\Sessions.

It is really a pain to modify this entrys manually in the registry.
Is there a another possibillity?
Thx and Best Regards
Cem
