Is it possible to create an interactive cmd under Windows?
I am looking for a scripting solution to login to a server remotely which prompts password entering.
Take SSH as an example. A normal user will do the following at a command line window:
C:>ssh2 user@server.com "echo Hello"
user's password: ********
Hello
The second line, which prompts password entering, must be manually entered by a user. Stdin redirection does not work, for example,
ssh2 user@server.com "echo Hello" < password.txt # not working
Therefore, I am looking for a script, which can impersonate a user. In Linux we can use expect, for example:
#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn ssh user@server.com "ls"
expect *assword:
send "password\r"
I am looking for similar stuffs in Windows environment.
Update: If PowerShell can do the same, can someone paste a sample script? Thanks.
This problem is solved.
Use a powershell that creates a Process object and play with that object.
