Hi, I've been duplicating a number of the tests that we ran in Big Brother through external scripts in the bb-services config file. One of these old perl test files opened up a telnet session and navigates through some menus to confirm the application is running.
The application is crap and needs to pause between each command otherwise the session remains open. Is there a way to pause for a length of time as this app doesn't seem to cache the commands? Here is what I've been trying test with in the bb-services.
[rft] send "\r\n 6 \r\n" options banner,telnet port 23
This is the simplest way to get in an out of the app. I've included my perl script that tests our RFT servers at the moment
#!/usr/local/bin/perl use IO::Socket; my $sock = IO::Socket::INET->new( PeerAddr => @ARGV, PeerPort =>'23' ); if ($sock) { #print "Opened @ARGV\n"; my $line = <$sock>; print $sock "\015"; print $sock "\012"; sleep 1; print $sock "6"; sleep 1; print $sock "\015"; print $sock "\012";
exit 0;} else { print "not opened @ARGV\n"; exit 1; } close($sock);
