run Expect in Netsight

[Ronald_Dvorak]

Hi,

I've tried to follow the below KB article to run Expect on my Netsight 6.3 ...
https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000082621

The problem is I get the following error if I install the expect package...

root@netsightvienna.mywlan.at:~$ apt-get install expect
Reading package lists... 0%

Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
bind9 : Depends: libbind9-80 (= 1:9.8.1.dfsg.P1-4ubuntu0.6) but 1:9.8.1.dfsg.P1-4ubuntu0.8 is to be installed

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Could someone tell me how to solve that....

Thanks,

Thanks, now the installation of the Expect package was a success BUT still the script doesn't run...

root@netsightvienna.mywlan.at:/usr/local/Enterasys_Networks/NetSight/scripts$ ./wlanshut.exp 10.12.0.1 mypassissecret PS4 disable

-bash: ./wlanshut.exp: /usr/bin/expect^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

root@netsightvienna.mywlan.at:/usr/local/Enterasys_Networks/NetSight/scripts$

So if there is a simple fix for it I'd appreciate some help...

Check your line breaks... Google sent me here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2920416/configure-bin-shm-bad-interpreter
Unless, of course, you've already done that 🙂

Edited with a better link.

This is a generic ubuntu problem, I have faced in my another ubuntu system while installing bind9.

apt-get clean
apt-get update
apt-get -f

to install dep mods, then start installing packages.
