Re: another expect question

The login is successful with this script and with the original script.

When typing in the password manually, the login command on the remote
machine turns keyboard echo off. That way, no password is seen on the
screen.

With the script, however, I and "sending" the password the remote system so
it also appears on the screen. If someone is looking, they can see the
password. Does that help ??
