Hi
I would like to ralize a .bat-File, who automizes some Telnet-Commands. To login, i have to wait until i can enter the User-Name and the Passwort. In a UNIX-File it looks like this.
set timeout -1 spawn telnet IP-Address rem match_max 100000 expect -exact "Enter login: " send -- "User-Name\r"
How can i do this for a .bat-File on Windows 2000?
