Net::SSH with non unix/linux host?

Question

I am trying to use the Net::SSH library to login and manage a host that supports ssh. It is a piece of telecom equipment and so speaks TL1. I seem to be able to log in successfu

Answer 1

I assume it works fine when you login in the shell manually.

To understand what is the difference when you connect through net/ssh collect output of env command in both cases and compare.

That most probably you'll see a difference that will lead you to a solution or at least will give you dirty trick.

UPDATE. (Not working)

Net::SSH.start('10.204.121.192', 'password', :password => "password") do |ssh|
   ssh.open_channel do |channel|
        channel.on_data do |ch, data|
          puts "got data: #{data.inspect}"
        end
        channel.send_data("INH-MSG-ALL;\n")
   end
end

UPDATE2. (Working)

Net::SSH.start('10.204.121.192', 'password', :password => "password") do |ssh|
   ssh.open_channel do |channel|
        channel.send_channel_request "shell"
        channel.on_data do |ch, data|
          puts "got data: #{data.inspect}"
        end
        channel.send_data("INH-MSG-ALL;\n")
   end
end

Thanks forker for your updates),

One more thing,

from your code how to make this

puts "got data: #{data.inspect}"

to output data for each command sent to the shell ?

Does this code wait for each command to complete?

Thanks.
