I'm having some problems with my chat script (via netcfg) for dialing
and connecting to my ISP. It connects, supplies "username" and
"password", but will not supply the "ppp" command at the other end. I
know the reason: the prompt for the "ppp" command is different every
time that I dial in.
For example, it could be...
Student HS3 V34+ :
or,
Student HS99 V34+ :
etc...
That is, the number following "HS" could be any value. Therefore I
can't hardcode the exact string for netcfg to expect. I have tried
getting it to look for just the " : ", but that hasn't worked (there
are colons left, right, and centre throughout the login message). I
tried using regular expressions (long shot, I know, seeing as though it
allows the "+" after the "4", etc...). So, I would use something like
"Student HS[0-9]+ v34[+] : " ... but that hasn't worked either.
Any suggestions? Please... 'cos this is driving me nuts. I have to
manually dialin with minicom at the moment. Please help.....
Regards,
David Taylor.
