I'm trying to get the version of the software loaded on a processor,
which uses VxWorks, from a Solaris 9 machine. However, I need to be
able to do this for multiple (30+) processors, which all use VxWorks,
and I need to repeat this process numerous times. I've tried using
telnet, but the version of telnet that we have (about 20 years old)
doesn't support arguments being passed in. I've tried using rsh, but
the VxWorks isn't responding to the arguments we pass in. rcp isn't
an option, and expect isn't installed.

Is there a version of expect that I might be able to try? Where?

Is there another software alternative that might be able to derive the
version information from the VxWorks processor?
