I'm not sure what you did wrong but apparently you did. I just tried
the following crude script:
========= SNIP =========
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
set timeout 10
spawn ssh mycygwinbox
expect {
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: " { }
default {
send_user "Spawning failed\n"
exit
}
}
send "mypassword\n"
expect {
-re ".*\\$.* " { }
default {
send_user "Sending password failed\n"
exit
}
}
send "ls\n"
expect {
-re ".*\\$.* " { }
default {
send_user "Sending ls failed\n"
exit
}
}
send "exit\n"
expect {
-re ".*Connection to mycygwinbox closed.*" { }
default {
send_user "Sending exit failed\n"
exit
}
}
========= SNAP =========
and it worked perfectly fine, from a Windows console window as well as from
a ssh session itself. The first two regexps are expecting my prompt, btw.
