The router can handle multiple connections. It has 256Megs of ram double CPU arm7. It is quite powerful. Runs web server and mysql etc.
Fresh booted PC, SSH v1.74 - EG connects and after 10 secs disconnects. I can exit EG cleanly but when I run EG again I onlt get : 16:30:09 SSH: Add Host: 192.168.90.254
but no connection is made. I will reboot my PC and post the log from EG.
By the way the other PC running SSH without timeout keeps connection opened for over 4 hours now.
Thanks again.

New Version!

v1.75:
-Added option to turn off the "automatic disconnect" feature if the host becomes inactive on a per host basis (as it appears to make problems with some devices).
-Increased the stability of the connection.
-Bug fixes.

@ arturmaj: I have no idea how to really fix your issue, please use the new function to disable automatic disconnect on your Netgear router.

Download link at the first post!

Hi
I have an issue with trying to connect to a draytek router, the plugin is stuck in a loop,
- Host "Home Router" found on network trying to connect
- Faild to connect to (with a missing E as well!

This loop repeats every few seconds until I shutdown eventghost

I think part of the issue is with the plug in not stopping after a failure and part of it being draytek
When you log onto the router using putty you get the message
Server refused to allocate pty

which some sites suggest you need to do ssh -T [email protected] to resolve, however this isnt an option with the plugin.

Any suggestions? I'd like to be able to put a time-out on one of the SSIDs to stop the kids brains rotting too much and ssh seems to be the way (or telnet).

thanks

Can you provide me the error message that this version will produce?

I think there are two issues here,
- The plugin would benefit from a setting to restrict the number of re-tries, so that it doesnt get caught in a continuous loop, it if it returns a trigger as and error the user can create their own retry if they want
- The draytek seems to support a weird level of SSH where in it doesnt like you to create a pseudo-terminal when you log in (I think!)
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3196 ... g-paramiko The first answer of this suggests adding get_pty=False to the exec_command

Maybe this is too much as its just me that is after it, I can maybe find a way to do it via telnet instead.

thanks for your help!

Hmm, no, that's by design... I don't want the user to deal with connection errors - and usually the user is not getting one anyway ;-)
But I just created a new version of the plugin which creates an event if the connection fails, so you could remove the host in that case so that it will not try again.

Well, that's just not working with the plugin - the plugin invokes a shell, that's how it works, no exec_command.

All in all it's very hart to find the issue when I don't have a device with this issue for testing. I don't think I can solve this, sorry

Good morning, and may I just take a moment to say BRAVO on all your hard work.

I have been trying my hand with it and can't seem to get a successful response.

I have the "SSH Add Host" in the Autostart.

I have a macro, with a single "SSH Send Command" action which all it does is send an "ls -al /etc" to the server.

It logs that it fires but never sends the command.

Any guidance you can give in regards to this would be greatly appreciated.

The server I am connecting to is a SuSE 13x server if that matters.

Code: Select all

Hi tivotyro,

I think I know where the problem is, try this one:
__init__.py
(19.44 KiB) Downloaded 157 times
If it doesn't work:
what happens when you fire the command in Putty, does it immediately return the result, or does it maybe require some additional input?
can you try another command - something like ifconfig ?
