Hello -
I'm trying to write an expect script to first su to another user adn then run the passwd command. I created it by using autoexpect and then modified it to take command line parameters. The problem I'm having is that each part works by its self, but when I try to run the passwd after I run the su portion, it just hangs until I kill the session.

Any suggestions??
Thanks!!
Jessica
