Automatic button pusher for keeping timeout alive?

szboardstretcher · 02-28-2011, 11:17 PM

I have an ESXi session i need to keep going because it kills the cp command when it logs out or times out.

So I need something that can press enter in that window every 5 minutes.

Know of something like this?

Can't you use powermanagement to not allow sleep hibernate or suspend?

All of that is disabled.

Its a terminal though, with a timeout. So, to keep it from timing out, i have to press a key every now and then... for the next 9 hours
