Can't Telnet to Cisco equipment (wodSSH / wodSSH.NET)

by rpissm, Tuesday, February 05, 2008, 19:54 (5923 days ago)

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to build a simple script in VB Script that will log in to Telnet-enabled Cisco routers and switches. Here is my script:
---------------

Set wodssh1 = WScript.CreateObject( WeOnlyDo.wodSSHCom.1 )

wodSSH1.Port = 23
wodSSH1.Timeout = 10
wodSSH1.Protocol = 1 'Telnet
wodSSH1.Blocking = 1 'True
wodSSH1.HostName = IP
wodSSH1.Login = USER
wodSSH1.Password = PASS

wodSSH1.connect

wodssh1.execute show ver & vbcrlf, --More--

wscript.echo(wodssh1.receive)

wodssh1.disconnect
-----------------

The problem is, the script hangs at the wodssh1.receive call. When I capture packets, I see that the raw Telnet data (user, pass, and command) is being sent, but nothing ever gets returned to my script to echo. It just waits. Also, when I modify my script to use the PEEK method, nothing ever gets returned.

Help!

Thanks,

Johnny [:sad:]

Thank you very much for the rapid responses. I was a little nervous about dealing with a company that is on a different continent from me. You have proven my concerns to be unfounded.
