hi curtis,

there are many past threads on unix.com regarding a nedd similar to yours;
you may have a look at the following past threads for the structure of some expect script that may be useful for your task:
Expect script - going in loops can't stop
Passing password for ssh in Script

to send the output of a command from expect to a log file, have also a look at:
expect log file - The Tcl programming language

see ya
