Subject:	Problem with cygwin expect calling ssh.
To:	cygwin AT cygwin DOT com

MIME-Version:	1.0

To whom it may concern:
 
My script works on a older cygwin software:
expect == 5.26
ssh == OpenSSH_3.6.1p2
 
My script fails on a current cygwin software:
expect == 5.26
ssh == OpenSSH_3.8.1p1
The symptons show that expect can not recognize the
ssh output, so
I will be prompted over and over again for the
password.
 
Also note, if I ssh from the older installation to the
current 
installation,
then my script works again.  It appears the problem
lives is term 
compatibility.

PS.  Here is my script and example successfull
execution:
$ cat t.exp
#!/usr/local.bin/expect -f
set timeout 60
send_user "Logging into pilot 172.18.64.110\n"
if {[catch {spawn ssh root AT 172 DOT 18 DOT 64 DOT 110}] != 0} {
    send_user "PwrSlammer.exp could not telnet to
172.18.64.110\n"
    exit -1
}
expect "Are you sure you want to continue connecting*"
  { send "yes\r" 
; exp_co
ntinue } \
       "password:*"   { send "pillar\r" ; exp_continue
} \
       "#"      { }
Administrator AT coibmtest1 /tmp
$ expect -f t.exp
Logging into pilot 172.18.64.110
spawn ssh root AT 172 DOT 18 DOT 64 DOT 110
root AT 172 DOT 18 DOT 64 DOT 110's password:
