Hi Managers,

I need to telnet to an UNIX server with telnet and run a script
application on it, The idea is to have a script that launch scriptAppl.sh
without letting end users put the username and password for connecting
the UNIX server.
I do the following script con.sh:

###########################
#!/bin/sh
host=@IP
port=23
cmd="scriptAppl.sh"

( echo open ${host} ${port}
sleep 1
echo "user"
echo -e "\r"
sleep 1
echo "passwd"
echo -e "\r"
sleep 1
echo ${cmd}
sleep 1
echo -e "\r"
sleep 1
 ) | telnet
###########################
My problem is that the connection will hang up from the server after a
while

The use of telnet isn't a problem (security issues)

why the connection hang up ? how can my script stay connected ?

Kind regards,
Kamal
