Thanks for the reply. I've replaced the call to read_very_eager() with
read_until() and enabled debugging messages. My script now looks like
this...
#############################
import telnetlib
tn = telnetlib.Telnet('192.168.100.11')
tn.set_debuglevel(9)
tn.read_until('login: ', 5)
tn.write('user\n')
tn.read_until('Password: ', 5)
tn.write('password\n')
tn.read_until('bash-2.05$ ', 5)
tn.write('ls\n')
print tn.read_until('bash-2.05$ ', 5)
#############################
Each call to read_until() returns a valid string except for the second
one, i.e.,
tn.read_until('Password: ', 5) returns a null string.
Here's the program output with debugging enabled...

Login incorrect
login:
#############################
It looks like it's sending the password before receiving the password
prompt.
Any ideas?
