[rancid] Can someone tell me why the second expect isn't being executed ?

[Mr. James W. Laferriere]

Hello All , This one is not making sense to me , expect see's
"$prompt" & and sends "show version\r" , But neither see's the regexp
"^Image.stamp.*" nor (of course) follows up with the send ...
Any insights are helpful . Tia , JimL

send "\r"
expect {
"$prompt" { send "show version\r" }
-re "^Image.stamp.*" { send "this stinks\r\n\n" }
}


Given the Following output ...
VH-SW01# show version
Image stamp: /sw/code/build/info(s02)
Feb 26 2007 09:30:56
F.05.59
1194
VH-SW01#

I would suspect the anchor is probably not valid, since the buffer
probably contains data before that. A health dose of the -d flag (sets
exp_internal) would help show what is being matched.

Hello (whomever, tho probaby) JohnH ,
I've made an attempt to check between switch & routers of the procurve
persuasion with this patch to this script .
There are probably better ways of doing this than I have implemented ,
Please comment with code (even pseudeo) .
Find it attached to prevent mailer mangle .

Hello All , Can someone among you's point at where in hlogin may be the
culprit ? My diagnostic skill(s) are faded today , insufficient sleep .

# hlogin -c "show run" vh-sw01a > hlogin-chomp.log

The chomp off is quite visiable . Below is the part that is missing .
I don't see anything in the output that might cause this to happen .
This is with the patch I sent earier today , I'll try it without as
well .
