I think the telnet#login method is waiting for the text "login" and
therefore cannot catch the "Username" text prompt.
Try using #waitfor...
Eg,
--------------------------------
cat ttest.rb
# test using waitfor
time_start = Time::new
require 'net/telnet'
host = "10.1.1.1"
tn = Net::Telnet::new( \
"Host" => host, # default: "localhost"
"Port" => 23, # default: 23
"Binmode" => false, # default: false
"Output_log" => "output_log", # default: nil (no output)
"Dump_log" => "dump_log", # default: nil (no output)
"Prompt" => /[$%#>]/, # default: /[$%#>] \z/n
"Telnetmode" => true, # default: true
"Timeout" => 5, # default: 10
"Waittime" => 0 # default: 0
)
tn.waitfor(/ogin:/) {|c| print c}
# ^ in your case,
#------------^ replace this w "tn.waitfor(/username/) {|c| print c}"
#
tn.puts "test"
tn.waitfor(/assword/) {|c| print c}
tn.puts "test's password"
tn.cmd("uname -an") { |c| print c }
tn.cmd("ls -la") { |c| print c }
tn.cmd("exit") {|c| print c}
tn.close

puts "#{Time.now - time_start} seconds"
