will abide by your suggestion of not using bold everywhere :)
I am not clear with this: So we save this as average.py in python folder(or a python path folder so python can find it) can u pls tell me more about this?
Hi all.. I need to do a condition check in a script. The same condition check needs to be repeated in another script. So, I am looking for a way, where i can set, say a flag in the first script ,upon meeting the condition, and be able to access that flag in another script, instead of repeating the check all over again.
Hope I am clear in explaining what I want to do. Can anyone pls give me suggestions?
using telnetlib, I am issuing a 'top' command on a remote host. Top seems to continue indefinitely. On a terminal, I can use CTRL+c to suspend the process...
What can be passed in telnet.write() equivalently to suspend the process , yet retain the output so far...

#-- establish a telnet connection to all the remote hosts in the list except the host running script telnet=telnetlib.Telnet(Host) telnet.read_until("login:") telnet.write(User+'\r\n') telnet.read_until("Password:") telnet.write(Password+'\r\n') time.sleep(5) print telnet.read_until('[abc@xyz abc]$ ') telnet.write(Superuser_id+'\r\n') print telnet.read_until("Password:") telnet.write(su_passwd+'\r\n') time.sleep(5) print telnet.read_until('[root@xyz abc]#') telnet.write("cd /folder1/folder2/%s\n"%version) ............. ........... ........... any idea why it hangs and doesnt do a cd:? it works fine when i don't try to do a super user login.
$? in linux gives the exit status of the recently executed command , as i have learnt. suppose i give a cd command at the terminal and if such a directory or file is not present, echo $? following it gives me 1.
but, when the same is run via a script using os.system("cd.........."), os.system("echo $?") gives 0.
it might be simple, but I am not able to trace out the reason.. can anyone throw some light on this?
i created a telnet connection to a remote server using telnetlib and excuted few commands using telnet.write. can't a python script residing on the remote host be run using telnet.write? i.e, do something like
telnet.write("./script_name.py argument1 arguement2........") after the connection is established?
You only need to match the regex r"adr[:](\d+(?:\.\d+){3})" . The benefit is that you don't need to connect to a remote address. But if you want a cross platform code, we should also examine the output of ipconfig in windows.
I need to maintain a list of servers that host the software release folders. I need my script to be generic, i.e., it can be run on any of the servers. I need to check the ip address of the host on which am running the script, and for the servers in list other than my host, i need to do a telnet to connect to it and get the folder,if present do an FTP upload.
I got this Crude method of creating a dummy socket and getting my IP address from ASPN Python cookbook
is there any way to save output of individual commands over telnet session onto seperate variables instead of using Telnet.read_all() at the end? or is there any way to save the output of Telnet.read_all() to a file , so that the output can be parsed?
I tried it, bu it gives "none" no matter the file is present or not. Learnt that linux stores the return value of recently executed command in the variable $?. Is there any way of copying the value of $?of remote host onto a variable in the host where i run the script?
my guide suggested me to prefer telnet over ssh, as it is widely used. so I am thinking of using the module 'telnetlib'.
I am doing the following:
import telnetlib ........... ........ ..........
user=User password=pass
telnet=telnetlib.Telnet(host) telnet.write(user+'\r\n') telnet.write(password+'\r\n')after this, i need to check whether a folder exists on that host and if present, do an FTP upload.. how do I proceed?
