Hi,
I am a newbie to expect, so please bear with me. I am trying to spawn a telnet session within an ssh session and have not been successful. I am pasting the code below. Can you please tell me what is the problem with this code? It hangs after the spawning ssh to the 1st shell.

#!/opt/exp/bin/expect
log_user 0
set timeout 3
set id [exec xterm -e ssh@$argv]
expect -i $id -re "Password: "
exp_send -i $id "abc"
exp_send -i $id "telnet host2"


Please help.

Thanks

You should use spawn to spawn your new preocess that's going to be controlled by expect.
