Hi PerlMongers!
I'm trying to write some perl code to log into a system, launch a program,
then launch a program on the local system and connect it's stdout to the
remote systems stdin, etc. I was thinking Expect.pm would be a good tool
for the job, but would like some advice on how to go about using it, or
advice on a better way of doing things if there is one.
An example sequence for tar would be this:
1) Telnet to the remote system.
2) Login to the remote system.
3) Launch tar xvpf - on the remote system.
4) Launch tar cf - ./ (or whatever) on the local system.
5) Let tar happen.
6) Close down the remote tar.
7) Close down the local tar.
8) Exit.
Comments? Ideas? Thanks in advance!
