(hostname is the name of the host in the prompt) and, yes, it HAS TO BE done using expect... any answer including the word "keys" will not be helpful Thanks, Dirk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Try installing sshpass instead of using expect. When rsync sees expect's sockets it mistakenly thinks it's a daemon. --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
