cant telnet from linux pc to windows pc "login Failed error"


I'm trying to telnet from Linux to Windows PC but it's showing error "login failed".

Here is my Python script. I am using pexpect module. I also tried with telnetlib but same error:

import os
import pexpect,time

        telconn = pexpect.spawn('telnet 192.168.0.105')
        telconn.logfile = open("/tmp/telnetlog", "a")
        time.sleep(30)
        print "connected"
        telconn.expect(':')
        telconn.sendline("user" + "\r")
        #time.sleep(10)
        print "connected user"
        telconn.expect(':')
        password = "user@123"
        #print password
        telconn.sendline(password + "\r")
        time.sleep(60)
        #print "connected password"

Error :

Connected to 192.168.0.105.
Escape character is '^]'.
Welcome to Microsoft Telnet Service 

login: user
password: user@123

The operation completed successfully.

Login Failed

Solution

  • @vish You can debug the problem using wireshark according to Marcin.You just try below mentioned code as i already had the same problem and i got the solution

    import pexpect
    import time,sys
    telconn = pexpect.spawn('telnet 192.168.0.105')
    time.sleep(20)
    telconn.logfile = sys.stdout
    telconn.expect(":")
    time.sleep(20)
    telconn.send("user" + "\r")
    telconn.expect(":")
    telconn.send("user@123" + "\r")
    telconn.send("\r\n")
    time.sleep(20)
    telconn.expect(">")
    

    I hope this will work.
