SCRIPT using expect

[Eric Jacobs]

I have been asked by those who must be obeyed to see if I can get Hobbit to 
make a configuration change on a switch if a certain connection test goes 
red. Been trying to do so via an "expect" script. Script runs fine when run 
manually but fails from within Hobbit. First attempt failed because script 
apparently didn't wait long enough after spawning a telnet session. So I 
slowed it down and it got session started but apparently didn't "send" 
password. Has anyone done anything like this?

Even if I get it to work, a few other questions arise.

1. Will it continue to run script if connection failure continues?
2. If I turn "RECOVER" on, can I run an alternate script upon recovery?
