    Shyam provided a workable solution with his attached script. I was able to
    modify his script to accomplish my purposes. My original post is at the end
    of this message. Following is the script I'm now using:

    #!/usr/local/bin/expect -f

    set force_conservative 1 ;# set to 1 to force conservative mode even if
                              ;# script wasn't run conservatively originally
    if {$force_conservative} {
            set send_slow {1 .1}
            proc send {ignore arg} {
                    sleep .1
                    exp_send -s -- $arg
            }
    }

    set timeout 3
    spawn $env(SHELL)
    match_max 100000
    send -- "telnet <server> 1023\r"
    expect
    send -- ""
    expect
    send -- "mode character\r"
    expect
    send -- "<logon>\r"
    expect
    send -- "<password>\r"
    expect
    send -- "startapp.bat\r"
    expect
    sleep 60
    send -- "exit"
    expect

    Dave,

    Here is a sample script I used to download brocade switch config. Let me
    know if you have any questions.

    Thanx

    Subject: [HPADM] Trouble Using Expect to Telnet from HP-UX 11.00 to Windows

    I'm hoping someone on the HP-UX list has enough experience with expect to
    point me in the correct direction. I wrote an expect script to do the
    following:

    1. Telnet from HP-UX 11.00 to Windows.
    2. Execute a script on the Windows server and exit.

    I posted the following on a newsgroup for expect, and I didn't get any
    responses:

    I've written the expect script below:

    #!/usr/local/bin/expect -b

    exp_internal 1

    set timeout 10

    spawn telnet server 1023
    expect "login: "
    send ""
    expect "telnet> "
    send "mode character\r\r"
    expect "login: "
    send "krservice\r"
    expect "password: "
    send "abcdefg\r"
    expect "D:\RemoteScript>"
    send "stopapp.bat\r"
    wait
    expect "D:\RemoteScript>"
    send "exit\r"

    exit

    This script produces the following:

    spawn telnet server 1023
    parent: waiting for sync byte
    parent: telling child to go ahead
    parent: now unsynchronized from child
    spawn: returns {27301}

    expect: does "" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern "login: "? no Trying...

    expect: does "Trying...\r\n" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern
    "login: "? no
    Connected to server.
    Escape character is '^]'.

    expect: does "Trying...\r\nConnected to server.\r\nEscape character is

    exp5) match glob pattern "login: "? no 06.1
    login:
    expect: does "Trying...\r\nConnected to server.\r\nEscape character is

    "login: "? yes
    expect: set expect_out(0,string) "login: "
    expect: set expect_out(spawn_id) "exp5"
    expect: set expect_out(buffer) "Trying...\r\nConnected to server.\r\nEscape
    character is '^]'.\r\nMicrosoft (R) Windows (TM) Version 5.00 (Build
    2195)\r\r\nWelcome to Microsoft Telnet Service \r\r\nTelnet Server Build
    5.00.99206.1\r\n\rlogin: "
    send: sending "\u001d" to { exp5 }

    expect: does "" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern "telnet> "? no

    expect: does "\n" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern "telnet> "? no
    telnet>
    expect: does "\ntelnet> " (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern "telnet> "? yes
    expect: set expect_out(0,string) "telnet> "
    expect: set expect_out(spawn_id) "exp5"
    expect: set expect_out(buffer) "\ntelnet> "
    send: sending "mode character\r\r" to { exp5 }

    expect: does "" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern "login: "? no mode
    character

    expect: does "mode character\r\n\r\n" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern
    "login: "? no
    expect: timed out
    send: sending "krservice\r" to { exp5 }

    expect: does "mode character\r\n\r\n" (spawn_id exp5) match glob pattern
    "password: "? no ioctl error on TIOCREQCHECK: invalid argument
         while executing
    "expect "password: "
    "

    Obviously, the script isn't working. What am I doing wrong?

    Also, if anyone has a working autoexpect script on HP-UX, please send it to
    me. The one I have doesn't work.

    Thnx,

    Dave
