Hi!
Thanks Tomi, yes kill -9 my.script has been performed regularly. Seems
to be a bad habit of mine, have to change it. Also, I may be doing wrong
in the expect script, node simply is left in the dark?

#! /usr/bin/expect -f
# my.script
# extract from the script giving an idea of what I am doing

set timeout 600

spwan node

send "c some_node\r"

expect timeout {
        exit 1
} "onnected"

logfile -a logfilename

send "more stuff"

expect timeout {
        exit 1
} "someting_indicating_got_it_all"

# end of script

It leaves node connected to some_node. After script ends node
disconnects the link but maybe have to tell that to the terminated
script?

It leaves the logfile to be closed by itself.

I could add ctrl-T and bye to quit node in the script if that is the
solution?
Never thought it was a problem, till now ;-)

clx 5.01 with postgrsql 6.5.1 have not (yet) complained.

Thanks also Dirk and Richard.

Thanks for the help,
73, Kjell, sm7gvf
