Why not have a cron job mail you with this? I use this in cron.hourly to
watch for FS >= 90% full.

if [ -n "`df | grep 9[0-9]%`" ]; then

fi

I am wondering if there is a way to script the following or if someone
has a better idea for automating this process.

Essentially I telnet into 5 LINUX boxes, RH 6.1 to check the disk
space on the drives.

I am wondering how I can automate the process into 1 script file to
telnet to the server specifing a username and password then issue the
command df -k and redirect it to a file then close the connection and
continue on to the next server and do the same thing and append the
results of df -k.

Thanks,

Peter Alliett

Sounds like a job for expect (http://expect.nist.gov) or, if you do perl,
the Net::Telnet module (ftp://ftp.cpan.org).

???
This is a job for rsh and nothing else:
rsh somemachine df -k /usr/local
