OK, I'm going to think out loud. Please let me know if I am off track. In my bash script, I will need to initiate a connection to my old (AIX) server. We're on a VPN, so are using telnet. #begin script telnet xx.xx.xx.xx echo "goodbyte" #end script The above script will not show "goodbye" until after the connection to the server is closed. This won't help. So I need to somehow control the input and output of the telnet program. Sounds like redirection is needed. #begin script telnet xx.xx.xx.xx > SomeScript < SomeScript echo "goodbyte" #end script The above should launch telnet as well as SomeScript, and put all output to SomeScript, and get all input from the same. But my question is, will this direct IO to a process, or will it overwrite SomeScript as a simple text file?
