As 99% of the Net::Telnet-related questions on list list are prompt problems, I will ask you to check your prompt. Does it consider "one:" to be a valid prompt? If not, $telnet->cmd() will not work. Either modify your prompt or go about it another way (like waitfor()).
Also, use the module's excellent debug facility. It helps with this kind of problem. -- Mark Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sr. Internet Architect User Technology Associates, Inc. $_=q;KvtuyboopuifeyQQfeemyibdlfee;; y.e.s. ;y+B-x+A-w+s; ;y;y; ;;print;; > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark Roles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, July 26, 2002 6:30 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Perl-unix-users] Unknown Telnet session Type > > > When I try to telnet using Net::Telnet, I get the following error: > > "Type unknown unknown > > Obsolete or generic terminal type: 'dumb' > Enter new terminal type, or press <return> to accept current one:" > > I tried to add a line; > > "print $telnet->cmd('dumb');" > > or even: > > "print $telnet->cmd('\n');" > > but it does not seem to work.
