Looking for any examples of using the "stty -echo" command with the
the expect perl module. I'm trying to spawn an ssh session and use an
encrypted password from a flat file. The only problem is hiding the
output from the expect session. Is it possible to make the password
hidden when the script automatically prompts for the password? The
encrypted file contains only the password, and it continues to echo the
encryped password on the line following the spawned ssh session.
caveat: I've never used Expect and rarely use UNIX
in the Expect documentation that I just read briefly I see reference to two
methods and a package variable which seem to be relevant
$object->exp_stty(@stty_modes)
$object->manual_stty(0, 1, or undef)
$Expect::Manual_Stty;
you might check those out - if you haven't already
you might also consider posting the question to the comp.lang.perl.misc
newsgroup .. because it definitely qualifies as a non-beginner question
