In the following expect script, I noticed that the script will send the password even before prompted for the password. How can this be prevented? Could I use a wait statement or something?
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
#set timeout 25
spawn rsync root@14.12.123.82:'/usr/backups /usr/backup-scripts /root/test/' /root/
expect "root@14.12.123.82's password: $"
send "\$xxxxxx\n"
expect "\\$ $
You shouldn't even need to use expect
for this task. According to the man page , rsync supports an option to read a password directly from a file:
rsync --password-file=file_that_password_is_in root@14.12.123.82:'/usr/backups /usr/backup-scripts /root/test/' /root/
Or using an environment variable:
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=secret
rsync root@14.12.123.82:'/usr/backups /usr/backup-scripts /root/test/' /root/
