HI, I am new to perl.I have written a piece of code to automate login.I was able to login to my host,i am unable to switch to super user mode ..Also,i want to execute multiple commands on host & extract output of each executed commands.How to extract Output of each command i executed? Im sorry that im asking you to write the code.I will appreciate ur suggestion..

#!/bin/perl
 
use Expect;
 
 
$host = xxxxx;
$user = yyyyy;
$pw   = shift;
 
#--- CONFIGURATION ---------------------------------------------------
+--------#
$cmd    = "ssh -l $user $host";
$prompt = "[Pp]assword";
 
#--- START SSH LOGIN SEQUENCE ! --------------------------------------
+--------#
$exp = new Expect();
$exp->log_file("SSHLOGFILE.txt");
$exp->raw_pty(1);  
$exp->spawn($cmd);
 

$exp->expect(10,
               [ qr/\(yes\/no\)\?\s*$/ => sub { $spawn->send("yes\n");
+ exp_continue; } ],   
               [ $prompt => sub { $_[0]->send("pwd\n"); } ]);




Here im unable to switch to super user login 
$exp->send("su - root\n");
$exp->expect(10,
               [ $prompt => sub { $_[0]->send("pwd\n"); } ]);

$exp->close();

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
