Target-client option seems to be ignored

[kantmn]

hi there,

i am testing your cool project using a draytek device.
while using

--target-client draytek_telnet
also tried variants like
--target-client=draytek_telnet
--target-client "draytek_telnet"
--target-client="draytek_telnet"

the first and only output is "generate dsl config: read ssh key: open : no such file or directory"
there should not be a ssh key required to use telnet
also when using a random ssh key it trys to connect via port 22 which is ssh and not 23

go run . --target-client draytek_telnet --target-host 10.1.1.1 --target-password xxxx

shouldn't this work?

best regards and many thanks

Hi

I have exactly the same issue. I tried also to put the port 23 but i get always ssh handshake failure.
best regards,

@MichB2
i have worked arround this by using
https://github.com/flokli/vigor-exporter
this is working, just installed a little console, installed go language and run the script. had to build / update an own grafana dashboard, but most values exists.

i still would prefer to use the solution from dentrax, as it is more flexible and provies also the current line usage up/down which flokli scripts does not.

@kantmn thank you very much i will try and also waiting if dentrax has a solution-

I created a fork here: https://github.com/Nerdbergev/xdsl-exporter that tries to fix those problems.
As I dont have a telnet modem myself I cant really test it but if you wanna give it a try and report back id be more than happy

Nice work @PhilmacFLy. Do you want to submit a PR here? Happy to get merged in.
