Stuck in the middle with Telnet

yes I did and no luck

But the documentation says login used login: and password: to match
against - my mud used What is your name: and password:

Did you try with 'tn.login("me", "let me in")'?

Hi

I am trying to write my own telnet client to connect to my
favourite
MUD. (http://www.anguish.org/)

I\'m stuck - I can\'t make it login at all ! I don\'t quite
understand
the concept.

Do I use tn.cmd(\"mudcommand\") to do pass the commands? Like
:

input = gets.chomp #look at tree
tn.cmd(input) {|str| print str} #you look at a tree

here\'s what I have that doesnt work…note - If I just change the
login
name (string) to guest and delete the password line - it does log
in as
guest (which requires no password).

require \'net/telnet\'

require \'net/telnet\'
tn = Net::Telnet.new(\'Host\' =>
\'ancient.anguish.org\',
\'Port\' => \'2222\',
\'Timeout\' => 60,
\'Telnetmode\' => true) { |str| print str
}

tn.cmd(\"Match\" => \"What is your name: \", \"String\"
=> \"myname\")
{ |str| print str }
tn.waitfor(\"Match\" => \"Password: \", \"String\" =>
\"mypassword\") {

str> print str }

Thanks

btw - I have also tried to make the password command a tn.cmd,
tn.write

I have implemented my own class for telnet stuff, may it helps you…

#!/usr/bin/ruby
#----------------->

require ‘net/telnet’

class RemoteHost

  def initialize(login,password,hosts,timeout=100)
        hosts=hosts.to_a
        @login=login
        @password=password
        @hosts=hosts
        @timeout=timeout
       
   end    
 


  def command(commands)
        results={}
      
        @hosts.each { |host|
          begin
            results[host]=[]
            connectedHost = Net::Telnet.new({"Host" => host,

“Timeout” => @timeout})
connectedHost.login(@login,@password)

            co=Hash.new
            commands.each {|command|
              co[command]=connectedHost.cmd(command).sub(command,"")
            }
          
            connectedHost.close
           
            results[host]=co
       
          rescue  Exception => err
                results[host]=err
             #return #{err} ,"n"
             next
          end
          
          }
   
        return results
  end

end

host=RemoteHost.new(“root”,“neverguess”,“myhosts”)
res=host.command(“whoami”)
p res[“myhost”][“whoami”]
