Alex,

Try using 'expect'.

Homepage: http://expect.nist.gov/

It's designed for exactly the purpose you have in mind: trapping responses from programs that normally operate interactively and don't easily lend themselves
to automation.

Expect is also available as a Perl module.

I beleave I asked this question already but did not get any answers.

If I run export from cron and somehow userid is incorrect or dump file name is incorrect ( let say somebody renamed directory) - process of export is stopped. Is it possible to catch this situation in the same script that called export and if not - how to catch it?
