[Q] telnetlib

[yoonseo at my-deja.com]

Hi,

I am trying to run commands on a remote computer using Python.
I think that using 'telnetlib' is the way to go, but I have trouble.
The following is the script that I wrote but it stops before
it reaches prompt, that is after 'TERM = (vt100) '.
Can somebody tell me what is wrong?

Thanks in advance

--------------------------------------
import telnetlib

HOST = 'host_name'
user = 'user_name'
pwd  = 'my_password'

tn = telnetlib.Telnet(HOST)

print tn.read_until('login: ')
tn.write(user+'\n')

print tn.read_until('Password:')
tn.write(pwd+'\n')

print tn.read_until('TERM = (vt100) ')
tn.write('\n')

print tn.read_until('% ')
tn.write('ls\n')

print tn.read_until('% ')
tn.write('exit\n')

print tn.read_all()
