jp10558 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I'm trying to interact with some programs on a remote linux server via SSH in a script. I have plink, which seems to be the way to do so. I can log in and get a shell with plink at the command line. My issue is I really need to be able to have autoit type in commands, and then parse the output. When I try that with plink, I get as much as "Using username foo" and then I get the handle is invalid. . . it looks like plink is creating a new PID? Is there a better way to do this? I can send commands to a PuTTY window also, but I can't read out the data from there. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enaiman Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Plink is the way to go. I don't know what have you been using but I certainly remember about a post in Example Scripts, where somebody wrote an UDF for putty/plink. Try that one - it might solve your problem. If you already used that, consider posting some code - otherwise you are asking for generic answers. SNMP_UDF ... for SNMPv1 and v2c so far, GetBulk and a new example script wannabe "Unbeatable" Tic-Tac-Toe Paper-Scissor-Rock ... try to beat it anyway :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp10558 Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 I've managed to almost get this working with the plink UDF. My problem is I need to forward a port... I try using Run w/ plink Run("plink " & $username & "@computer -pw " & $password & ' -L 159'& $vnc & ':computer:59'&$vnc,"",@SW_SHOW,0x8) but it seems like plink is immediately exiting for me there. . . not keeping the port open. I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudw2k Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I use plink for an automated SCP copy script. Here is some snippet functions that may be a good example for you. expandcollapse popupFunc _Connect($host,$usr,$pass) $exec = @ScriptDir & "\PLINK.EXE" If Not FileExists($exec) Then _Err("PLINK.EXE Not Found!",0) ;If $debug Then ;$pid = Run($exec & " -ssh -pw " & $pass & " " & $usr & "@" & $host, @SystemDir, @SW_SHOW, 0x1 + 0x8) ;Run SSH.EXE ;Else $pid = Run($exec & " -ssh -pw " & $pass & " " & $usr & "@" & $host, @SystemDir, "", 0x1 + 0x8) ;Run SSH.EXE ;EndIf If Not $pid Then _Err("Failed to connect",0) $currentpid = $pid $rtn = _Read($pid) ;Check for Login Success - Prompt If StringInstr($rtn,"(y/n)") Then _Send($pid,"y" & @CR) $rtn = _Read($pid) EndIf If StringInstr($rtn,"yes/no") Then _Send($pid,"yes" & @CR) $rtn = _Read($pid) EndIf If StringInstr($rtn,"Access denied") Or StringInstr($rtn,"FATAL")Then _Err($rtn,$pid) Return $pid EndFunc Func _Read($pid) If Not $pid Then Return -1 Local $dataA Local $dataB Do $dataB = $dataA sleep(100) $dataA &= StdOutRead($pid) If @error Then ExitLoop Until $dataB = $dataA And $dataA And $dataB ;If $debug Then FileWriteLine(@ScriptDir & "\log.txt",$dataA & @CRLF) Return $dataA EndFunc Func _Send($pid,$cmd) StdinWrite($pid,$cmd) EndFunc Func _Err($data,$pid) If $data And $data <> -1 Then MsgBox(0,"An Error has Occured",$data,5) _Exit($pid) EndFunc Func _Exit($pid) ProcessClose($pid) EndFunc Spoiler Things I've Made: Always On Top Tool ◊ AU History ◊ Deck of Cards ◊ HideIt ◊ ICU ◊ Icon Freezer ◊ Ipod Ejector ◊ Junos Configuration Explorer ◊ Link Downloader ◊ MD5 Folder Enumerator ◊ PassGen ◊ Ping Tool ◊ Quick NIC ◊ Read OCR ◊ RemoteIT ◊ SchTasksGui ◊ SpyCam ◊ System Scan Report Tool ◊ System UpTime ◊ Transparency Machine ◊ VMWare ESX BuilderMisc Code Snippets: ADODB Example ◊ CheckHover ◊ Detect SafeMode ◊ DynEnumArray ◊ GetNetStatData ◊ HashArray ◊ IsBetweenDates ◊ Local Admins ◊ Make Choice ◊ Recursive File List ◊ Remove Sizebox Style ◊ Retrieve PNPDeviceID ◊ Retreive SysListView32 Contents ◊ Set IE Homepage ◊ Tickle Expired Password ◊ Transpose ArrayProjects: Drive Space Usage GUI ◊ LEDkIT ◊ Plasma_kIt ◊ Scan Engine Builder ◊ SpeeDBurner ◊ SubnetCalcCool Stuff: AutoItObject UDF ◊ Extract Icon From Proc ◊ GuiCtrlFontRotate ◊ Hex Edit Funcs ◊ Run binary ◊ Service_UDF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
