Simple telnet-like access

[John Deuf]

Hi,
I'd like to use a module in Perl to connect to a remote server through
a Telnet like connection.

Something allowing to
- wait for "login" word, then send the "login" name
- then wait for "password" then entering my password
- then doing a few I/O with the server (commands / answers)

I never used a tcp-ip module in Perl

- what is the best module to use
- how to simply implement the telnet connectivity

Thank you

Regards

The best 'telnet like' connection is SSH. Use Net::SSH:erl module to satisfy
your remote access needs.....

Either use Net::Telnet or one of the Expect modules.

I'd use Net::Telnet - the first example does exactly what you've said
you want to do:

This is *exactly* what I needed : an effective simple solution

Thank you.
