    Question

    Hi everyone,
    I'm currently writing script from NT. I want to telnet to unix and logon. My script
    below is:
    host telnet (hostname)
    (username)/(password)

    It does not logon automatically. I'm not familiar with Unix. Can anyone letting me
    know what command should I input in my script in order to logon automatically.

    Hi

    You cannot write a script to pass username and password to a Unix machine as parameters from NT only parameter you can pass will be the hostname

    Always try to use the ssh (secured shell) to connect to your remote unix server, as it is allways possible to compromise your username and password on the network when you use the telnet.

    ssh1
    ssh username/passwd@hostname.domain-name


    If you are to use the ssh2 , then it would be

    ssh username/passwd@hostname.domain-name -p 2222
