RE: Calling SSH from Expect - URGENT

["Simha, Shuba" <shuba_simha at merck dot com>]

I added sleep 5 after "expect -re" and before "send..", but it does not
help..

Thanks!

The problem is that SSH does open /dev/tty and than does fflush of 
stdout which is the same file (it's in cli.c). Try to add delay, i.e.
add a "sleep 5" after the "expectr -re ..." and befor the "send ...".
