[S.u.S.E. Linux] Automating telnet
I would like to automate a telnet session via perl, or at the very least with a shell script. Any ideas how I can go about this? Maybe someone could tell me how to automate a login at least?

What are you using it for? Will 'rsh' be a good substitute? With .rhosts on the remote host set up properly, it is very easy to access remote machine via rsh. Kenneth Tan On Thu, 16 Jul 1998, Joseph Beaman wrote:

In SuSE 5.x, I have noticed that the symbolic link for X is in two places and somewhat convuluted (IMHO) as shown below in item 2. A symlink to another symlink! 1. /var/X11R6/bin/X -> /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA (or other X server) 2. /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> /var/X11R6/bin/X What is the reason for doing this? Seems very confusing to me. If /usr/X11R6/bin/X needs to be there, then wouldn't the following be a less confusing solution? 3. /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA (or other X server) Any comments/clarifications? -- Arun Khan - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Think of several clients sharing the same /usr directory via NFS, but needing different X servers. The double linking allows to use different servers on different machines. Your solution would imply the same X server for all clients.

This method allows /usr to be mounted read only from several machines in a LAN. Every 'client' has it's own /var filesysten, so the proper X server can be set without changing anything on the global /usr.
