Re: [Expectperl-discuss] pty dropping data

[kboragouda <app...@gm...>]

Hi ,
 I am using Expect and IO::pty modules for ssh/rsh automation . In
multithreaded envirnoment IO::Pty module is not working. It fails during
spawning a process.  But i wanted to create process (spawn) within threads.

 Please let me know any alternatives/solution for this.

thanks
appu
