I'd like to send a command from a protocol to retrieve data from a Linux server via SSH.

However that command needs sudo elevated privileges. The response I retrieve is just the text that is asking for a username/pwd.

How can I do this from a protocol, please?

Hi Jochen

Expect is a well known tool in the Linux world to automate password prompt scenarios. I see that they also support Windows, may be you can consider integrating that in the driver development.

Thanks.
