Lobus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello!
I am having an issue with the following code. A user selects if they want to enter a large group of IP addresses seperated by commas, or if they would like to point the program to a file for IP addresses.
The program then takes the addresses and stores them in an array. Additionally the user enters a username and password. The script is then supposed to try and connect to each address and then copy some files (in this case it is Ultra VNC).
However the problem i am having is that the script only works for the first IP address in either version. After the loop runs the first time every subsequent time it tells me the username and password are wrong, even though they are correct.
Ex: If i put a the working IP address first followed by a false address, the first machine will receive VNC. But if I put a false address first, and then the correct address second... it will fail.
This is designed to run on windows, additionally psexec.exe from the pstools suite must be in the same directory. Additionally my machine has Active perl.
Thank you for your time.
