Hi,

I would like to automate Putty commands whereby it will select my saved telnet session (so open Putty Configuration and select session) and afterwards it will open the Putty-prompt and will do next commands:

<Enter>
ACCESS <Enter>
'UserName' <Enter>
SET Priv <Enter>
'Password' <Enter>
LOG PORT ALL <Enter>

And close Putty

Kind of new in AutoIT so all help is welcome !

 

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

You might want to check out plink.exe (command line putty) which works better for non-interactive telnet operations and can be run from a batch file.

Agree that plink is probably your best bet. I do a lot in putty sessions for customers, and use the following as a framework: 

Local $sEXE = @MyDocumentsDir & "\PuTTY\PLINK.EXE"
Local $sUser = " -l root"
Local $sPass = " -pw Password1"
Local $sCommand = " esxcli storage vmfs unmap -l "

    For ...
        ShellExecute($sEXE, " -ssh " & $aRange1[$a][1] & $sUser & $sPass & $sCommand & $aRange1[$a][0]) ; - Pulls datastores from excel range and runs vmfs unmap
    Next

Depending on your circumstances you may also want to look at using ssh keys rather than embedding your username/password (care where you put the private key!).

Let me google that for you....

https://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/0.58/htmldoc/Chapter7.html

:D Thanks SlackerAl , I found this on the net:


\path\to\putty.exe -load "[Sessionname]" -l [user] -pw [password] -m C:\path\to\commands.txt

 

and in commands.txt I'll put the commands mentioned here beneath :

<Enter>
ACCESS <Enter>
'UserName' <Enter>
SET Priv <Enter>
'Password' <Enter>
LOG PORT ALL <Enter>

Thanks !

      UDF SSH
      By JiBe
        Hi to all,
       
       
      I only am accustomed pas has posted on the forum (coz, I'm french). But I use it a lot.
      So first of all, thank you all to participate in the evolution of this wonderful product.
      Today is not one day like any other, I myself am decide has posted a UDF that I myself create and developed (there may be some bug) for some months.
      So here it is:
      This UDF allows to use the SSH protocol very easily in your code.
      It uses the syntax as the TCPxxx() function.
      Your code will be easier to convert :-).
       
      excused my English, I'm French.
       
      Example:
       
      #cs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AutoIt Version: 3.3.4.0 Author: Joseph Barone 2010-2015 Script Function: Modele pour l'utilisation de la fonction ssh (plink). #ce ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Script Start - Add your code below here #include #include #include #include #include #include "SSH_udf.au3" _SSHStartup() Global $butt[6] $Gui = GUICreate("SSH Console",550,400) $label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Adresse IP:",10,10,150,20) ; ip $input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("",10,25,150,20) ; ip $label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Tcp port:",170,10,150,20) ; port $input2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("",170,25,60,20) ; port $label6 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Protocol:",240,10,40,20) ; port $input6 = GUICtrlCreateInput("ssh",240,25,60,20) ; port $butt[0] = GUICtrlCreateButton("Connect0",310,5,80,20,$BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON) $butt[1] = GUICtrlCreateButton("Connect1",390,5,80,20) $butt[2] = GUICtrlCreateButton("Connect2",470,5,80,20) $butt[3] = GUICtrlCreateButton("Connect3",310,25,80,20) $butt[4] = GUICtrlCreateButton("Connect4",390,25,80,20) $butt[5] = GUICtrlCreateButton("Connect5",470,25,80,20) $Checkbox = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("RSA, Fingerprint, Alert AutoValidate", 330, 45, 205, 25) $label4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Login:",10,45,150,20) ; login $input4 = GUICtrlCreateInput("",10,60,150,20) ; login $label5 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Mot de passe:",170,45,150,20) ; password $input5 = GUICtrlCreateInput("",170,60,150,20,$ES_PASSWORD) ; password $label3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Commande a envoyer:",10,85,150,20) ; send command $input3 = GUICtrlCreateInput("",10,100,310,20) ; send commande vers l'hote $butt2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Send",330,100,80,20,$BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON) GUICtrlSetState($butt2,$GUI_DISABLE) $edit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("",10,130,530,260,$WS_VSCROLL);,$WS_DISABLED)) GUISetState() Global $ConnectedSocket[6] = [-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1] Global $msg, $recv, $ret ; GUI Message Loop ;============================================== While 1 $nmsg = GUIGetMsg() If $nmsg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop ;;; connect part: $b = 0 While 1 If $nMsg = $butt[$b] Then If GUICtrlRead($butt[$b]) = "Connect"&$b Then _SSHParametreSet("yesall",GUICtrlRead($Checkbox)) _SSHParametreSet("protocol",GUICtrlRead($input6)) _SSHParametreSet("login",GUICtrlRead($input4)) _SSHParametreSet("passwd",GUICtrlRead($input5)) $ConnectedSocket[$b] = _SSHConnect(GUICtrlRead($input1),GUICtrlRead($input2)) If $ConnectedSocket[$b] = 0 Then MsgBox(0,"Erreur", "Impossible de ce connecter!!")

      I join with UDF version of modified putty myself.  :-) LoL
      but, it is not used with the UDF, it is included in the UDF.

      plink connection to remote machine, how to capture StdoutRead outputs as a variable
      By taylansan
      Dear Autoit Forum,
      Before I start, I have checked the following topics, but couldn't get far enough:
      '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

      Func _PLINK_Connect($remote, $user, $password) Local $hSessionPID = Run("plink.exe -ssh " & $remote & " -l " & $user & " -pw " & $password, "", @SW_HIDE, $STDIN_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) If @error Then MsgBox(0, "Error: xxx", "Running plink.exe under the main folder failed.") Return False EndIf Local $sLine While True ;read each line $sLine = StdoutRead($hSessionPID) ;ty_DEBUG print each line after connected If $sLine <> "" Then ConsoleWrite("Current Line Start:" & $sLine & @CRLF & "==== Current Line End" & @CRLF) If ProcessExists($hSessionPID) = 0 Then ConsoleWrite("cannot find PID" & @CRLF) Return SetError(9) ;check if connected with the given user name ElseIf StringInStr($sLine, "Using keyboard") Then ConsoleWrite("cannot login" & @CRLF) Return SetError(8) ;check if connected to remote ElseIf StringInStr($sLine, " [cdr2db] :") Then ConsoleWrite("connected to remote" & @CRLF) ExitLoop EndIf Sleep(10) WEnd Return $hSessionPID EndFunc Now i call the function:
      Case1: Everything is fine
      _PLINK_Connect("10.25.0.20", "cdr2db", "Cdr2db_1")
      Output:
      Current Line Start:Last login: Sat Sep 13 12:56:06 2014 from 10.75.58.71


      ==== Current Line End
      Current Line Start:<101 bb1a [cdr2db] :/onip/app/cdr2db>
      ==== Current Line End
      connected to remote

      Case2: Another username
      _PLINK_Connect("10.25.0.20", "cdr2dba", "Cdr2db_1")
      Output:
      Current Line Start:Using keyboard-interactive authentication.
      Password:
      ==== Current Line End
      cannot login
      Using username "cdr2dba".
      Access denied

      Case3: Wrong password
      _PLINK_Connect("10.25.0.20", "cdr2db", "Cdr2db_1a")
      Output:
      Current Line Start:Using keyboard-interactive authentication.
      Password:
      ==== Current Line End
      cannot login
      Using username "cdr2db".
      Access denied

      Case4: Non-existing remote machine
      Output:
      FATAL ERROR: Network error: Connection timed out
      cannot find PID
      Now my question is that:
      For Case 2 and 3; my last console write says that "current line start / end" then, "cannot login". But in the output window i can find "Using username cdr2db. Access denied". So, how is that output generated?
      For Case 4: Even there is no output as ConsoleWrite, how the "FATAL ERROR: ..." line is generated?
      I would apperiate any comments on the topic.
      Thanks in advance.

      Capture DOS/PuTTY output - StdoutRead just working the first time
      By Yaerox
      Hey guys,   I want to use Putty/Plink to connect on a remote computer via SSH because I need to execute a couple commands there. So I researched a couple days now and tried like 20 different ways to get this running but I'm still failing. Maybe a little description what my script should do:   #Edit: Short version: I need to use StdoutRead to get the DOS command promt output MORE THAN ONCE! The first time is working, but I need to get this the whole time till I say stop ^^   I want to start Putty/Plink and connect via SSH on a remote computer AND I wanna check if there is anything wrong going on or not, because the next step would be the execution of an perl-script on the remote computer which is giving an output text while running. That means I'd like to be able to read out the Putty-Window/Plink-Console the whole time ... I'm actual just getting the text-output after connecting.   Maybe a little example of what I'm expecting in some kind of mixed "AutoIt/Pseudo -Code":   #include <Constants.au3> Local $iPID = Run('"C:\Program Files (x86)\Putty\putty.exe" -ssh root@HOST:22 -pw PASSWORD', @ScriptDir, @SW_SHOW, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)   Actual Putty-Window is popping up showing me: Using username "root".

I need to be able to check this output of the script like "some text written by the script.pl" because I may not execute a following statement if this one didn't succeed. In my thoughts the first step should show me what I got in the first code-box above, and the second output should be perl -w some/dir/script.pl some text written by the script.pl some text written by the script.pl some text written by the script.pl root@COMPUTERNAME:~# but I dont get this working ...   So I found many threads about Plink. I tried the whole thing with Plink...   Local $sData = '' Local $iPID = Run('"C:\Program Files (x86)\Putty\plink.exe" -ssh root@HOST:22 -pw PASSWORD', @ScriptDir, @SW_SHOW, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)   While True     $sData &= StdoutRead($iPID)     If @error Then ExitLoop     Sleep(25) WEnd   ConsoleWrite("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" & @CR & _ $sData & @CR & _ "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" & @CR)  I'm getting the following output: Linux COMPUTERNAME 2.6.31-22-generic-pae #63-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 18 23:57:18 UTC 2010 i686   To access official Ubuntu documentation, please visit: http://help.ubuntu.com/     System information as of Mo 13.

I found this on Stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19206834/command-prompt-and-autoit-stdinwrite) Thats my code after reading that article: #include <Constants.au3>   Local $data Local $pid = Run("C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe",@SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDIN_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) StdinWrite($pid,"cd C:\users\username") StdinWrite($pid,@CRLF) ;~ StdinWrite($pid)   Sleep(2000)   $data &= StdoutRead($pid) ConsoleWrite("Debug:" & $data & @LF)   $data = ''   StdinWrite($pid,"cd C:\Program Files (x86)") StdinWrite($pid,@CRLF) StdinWrite($pid)   $data &= StdoutRead($pid) ConsoleWrite("Debug:" & $data & @LF) but the second output still empty...   Can you guys please help me out? Thanks in advice. Regards.
