25.10 Editing Login Script

For some remote gateways, text login is required before PPP negotiation is started. The Prestige provides a
script facility for this purpose. The script has six programmable sets; each set is composed of an 'Expect'
string and a 'Send' string. After matching a message from the server to the 'Expect' field, the Prestige
returns the set's 'Send' string to the server.
For instance, a typical login sequence starts with the server printing a banner, a login prompt for you to
enter the user name and a password prompt to enter the password:
Welcome to Acme, Inc.
Login: myLogin
Password:
To handle the first prompt, you specify "ogin: " as the 'Expect' string and "myLogin" as the 'Send'
string in set 1. The reason for leaving out the leading "L" is to avoid having to know exactly whether it is
upper or lower case. Similarly, you specify "word: " as the 'Expect' string and your password as the
'Send' string for the second prompt in set 2.
You can use two variables, $USERNAME and $PASSWORD (all UPPER case), to represent the actual user
name and password in the script, so they will not show in the clear. They are replaced with the outgoing
login name and password in the remote node when the Prestige sees them in a 'Send' string. Please note
that both variables must been entered exactly as shown. No other characters may appear before or after,
either, i.e., they must be used alone in response to login and password prompts.
Please note that the ordering of the sets is significant, i.e., starting from set 1, the Prestige will wait until the
'Expect' string is matched before it proceeds to set 2, and so on for the rest of the script. When both the
