[Expectperl-discuss] problems matching first prompt upon ssh login

[bkincer <dev...@gm...>]

Hello all, 

I've been banging my head against this problem for a while now and wanted to
see if anyone else has any ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So, the problem is this... I'm using the expect module to log into a list of
servers, then run through a list of commands. I have a problem expecting the
first prompt when I get logged in. And it's only on one certain type of
prompt. Due to being such a huge environment, the only thing I can
consistently expect in my prompt is my username.

If the prompt is this: "username@machine:~> "
It won't match the username for some reason. I thought it could be "@" sign,
but if i set my prompt to duplicate itself, it matches. ie,
"username@machine:~> username@machine:~> "

I've tried setting the raw_pty(1) to no avail.

FYI, all these machines I am running this on/against are Linux machines.

Thank you in advance for any help.
