Hi all,



I am trying to automate the following process.



1)       Ping and find out if a system is up.

2)       If it is up telnet to it in a separate console window.

3)       Give the control back to the user



Steps 1 to 3 have to be executed for 2 systems.



I am able to do this in the same window for one system, but unable to do
it in a separate console window.



My base machine runs SUN OS and the machine I need to telnet runs Linux.

In my SUN machine, I did a "spawn dtterm" which opened a new console
window, but I am not able to send and expect commands to this window.



Is this possible using Expect? If not, could anyone please tell me the
correct approach?



Thanks in advance!

Kapil
