None of my expect scripts are used to connect to iseries boxes. All are to windows or linux boxes. Your issue is with this particular server. If you can't get server operator to help you by looking at the logs on their side, then it is hard to tell you what is wrong.


This script runs many times a day and works fine.
#!/usr/local/bin/expect -f
spawn sftp -oPort=9002 xxxx@a.b.c.d
expect "password:"
send "pass\n"
expect "sftp>"
send "cd current\n"
expect "sftp>"
send "mget *\n"
expect "sftp>"
send "quit\n"

the conclusion i arrived at as well...

Jack do you see anything wrong with this script?
If not, and nobody can produce a simple script the use to connect to a
non-iseries sftp server, I'm going to conclude nobody knows how or it can't
be done.
(good talent on this list is what I'm trying to say :))

#!/usr/local/bin/expect -f
set timeout 20
spawn sftp -vvv -o PreferredAuthentications=password -oport=22
$env(SSH_USER)@10.175.96.213
expect {
default {exit 2}
"continue connecting (yes/no)?" {send "yes\n"; exp_continue}
"assword:" {send "$env(SSH_PASS) \n"; exp_continue}
"sftp>"
}
expect {
default {exit 2}
"not found" {exit 3}
"sftp>"
}
send "quit\n"
exit 0

Kevin, no... if I do the following steps, I never get prompted for a
password...

1.) call qp2term
2.) sftp -vvv -o PreferredAuthentications=password -oport=22
qaISGNsftp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

shouldn't I be getting a prompt for password?

Your log seems to have clipped anything after a comma. eg. this line

debug2: we sent a password packet

should read

debug2: we sent a password packet, wait for a reply

I'm not sure whether the missing data is necessary, but it would be
nice
to have.

In any event, based on what is in the log it would appear that after
sending a password packet your remote server is not replying but
instead
just closing the connection. That seems odd to me. The server's log
might
shed some light on the problem, but of course you don't have access
to
that. You may have to contact the system owner and see if they can
figure
it out.


Can you connect to the server normally? It's just the expect script
which
fails?
