I think the problem is that every time you issue `run()`, it is like a separate `ssh` into the server. In other words, no local state is maintained between each 'run()` command.
I am not sure what Fabric has to let you get around this (maybe something to prefix all your commands?), but that is why you are having the trouble, I think.

In my case, SSH-ing to the server opens up a CLI (like the ones Routers have). I need to execute 'enable' command followed by '_shell' command in-order to finally open up a UNIX shell. The problem here is that I am unable to automate these specific commands using Fabric. I have tried the 'shell=False' parameter for the run() function. Here is an image of the commands I am running, followed by the error being generated: I have been trying different stuff but still haven't been able to solve this problem through Fabric. The equivalent implementation using a bash script is as follows: Regards, M. Nouman Shahzad | Software Engineer | Ebryx Pvt. Ltd.
