Hello everybody :),

 

I want to connect via ssh to the fortigate and make a reboot. code: sshpass -p 'password' ssh admin@192.168.209.155 exec reboot The fortigate expects y or n, how do I get the fortigate said y or n?

    maybe like so?

    echo y | sshpass -p 'password' ssh admin@192.168.209.155 exec reboot

    That depends on how sshpass treats stdin. I would give it a try.

    Hi Ede,

     

    looks not good.

    the 'y' is not sending to the Fortinet.

     

    At the moment I try it now with the expect command.

     

    code:

     

    spawn sshpass -p "password" ssh admin@192.168.209.155 exec reboot expect "Do you want to continue? (y/n)" {send_user "y\r"} expect eof ----------------------

    but this are also not working.
