Batch file and telnet commands
Posted on 2013-11-07
I need some help with this. I have a process that monitors a POE camera device that sometimes has issues. Once an issue is detected the program will run the below batch file. This works great when I'm logged into the server (and the screen isn't locked). However when the screen is locked it doesn't run successfully. When I log into the machine again, I see a few telnet session that have been opened, and it stopped at username (basically it's like the telnetfe33.vbs script couldn't run). I believe the issue is that the server is locked when I leave a session and it can't send the keys. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this without having to have the machine always open and unlocked? I was going to try plink, but didn't know if that would work either, and how to accomplish that goal. Basically I'm trying to reset a port on the switch which reboots the camera.
Batch file to start the telnet session
start telnet.exe 192.168.0.3
cscript c:\jobs\telnetfe33.vbs
File telnetfe33.vbs
set OBJECT=WScript.CreateObjec
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "myusername{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "mypassword{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "en{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "myelevatedpassword{ENTER}
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "conf t{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "int fa0/33{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "shutdown{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 30000
OBJECT.SendKeys "no shutdown{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "exit{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "exit{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "exit{ENTER}"
WScript.sleep 50
OBJECT.SendKeys "exit{ENTER}"

As you are only using "timed waits" rather than "expects", I would guess that you are simply hitting a timeout...
I would suggest looking at an alternative method that can use an "expect" method.
